Pittsburgh's ground-and-pound power running game and downhill attack.
Benny Snell Jr. can be a Year 1 contributor in short-yardage and goal-line situations, with the upside of a rotational power back.
His value diminishes significantly in a spread-option or outside zone scheme that prioritizes speed and agility over raw power.
Snell's ability to maximize every carry and churn out tough yardage makes him a valuable asset for a team committed to a physical run game.
