Why Pittsburgh Steelers Rookie Ryan Shazier Is Sure to Be a Stud

[GBMelBlount]

In a position formerly manned by the likes of Larry Foote and Vince Williams, Pittsburgh Steelers top draft pick and rookie Ryan Shazier will give the team a much needed infusion of youth, versatility and speed starting at inside linebacker.

The talent Shazier brings, along with the linebacking greatness of his franchise, ensures that he will be a stud in the Steel City.

The Steelers grabbed Shazier with the 15th overall pick in the 2014 NFL draft after the linebacker’s star-studded career at Ohio State. Being credited with 44.5 tackles for loss, 14 sacks and nine forced fumbles in Colombus is already a compelling argument, but when combined with tantalizing game film, Shazier’s pro potential looks even better. Here’s some of what the 21-year-old brings to the table.

I guess this B/R writer never read our thread last year concerning the difference between "potential star" and "is a star" or whatever noun was being used.

I will wait until he plays a full season. Or at least give him a few regular season games.

Just like a rookie can not be called a bust because of his 1st year, I wouldn't be calling one a stud at this point, either.
