Najee Harris: Rookie Profile

Najee Harris
Pittsburgh Steelers Running Back

How much impact will rookie running back Najee Harris have for his first year with the Steelers?  He was an excellent back for Alabama.  I think it will translate to the NFL level quickly.  The Steelers are usually a pass first offense.  However, with a less than impressive line to protect an aging QB he might be used more than the past RBs before him on the squad.  I honestly think he will get offensive rookie of the year if he is used for 20-25 touches a game.  Will they trust a rookie running back that much?

Fantasy football wise I think Harris will be gone in the 2nd round in most league formats.  If he is still there in the 3rd round when you get the pick, please, do yourself a favor and draft him.
