The Facts:
The Steelers are stepping up their efforts to replace departed wide receivers Emmanuel Sanders and Jerricho Cotchery. Heyward-Bey is visiting Pittsburgh on Wednesday, reports Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The perennially cap-strapped Steelers have less than a $1 million available, so DHB makes sense as a veteran unlikely to collect guarantees on his next contract. As NFL.com's Chris Wesseling notes, Heyward-Bey, 27, has shown flashes of promises over the past three seasons, but fell out of favor in Indianapolis last season after struggling with drops and physical cornerbacks. Those shortcomings are something fantasy football owners should keep in mind going forward.
