    With the 159th overall pick in the 2012 NFL Draft, the Steelers select Florida RB Chris Rainey. Rainey can be used as a running back, slot receiver or return specialist. He's an explosive athlete who will make big plays if given even the smallest amount of open space on the field. Rainey has the potential to be a dynamic ballcarrier for a creative offensive coordinator willing to design plays for his skills. Bounces around piles to keep runs alive and keeps his feet moving on contact. Terrific pass catcher who displays eye/hand coordination.

    I hope to see him as a full time return man as well as contribute to the offense in a number of ways.
