Will the Steelers follow the Broderick Jones blueprint with Troy Fautanu?

The Pittsburgh Steelers traded up into the top half of the first round for Broderick Jones. Despite the considerable investment, however, they did not press the issue. He competed for a starting job and he lost, so he had to wait his turn. He finally cracked the starting lineup by midseason, and he looked more ready by then. That model proved successful, so why not follow it with Troy Fautanu?

Jones himself is a complicating factor because he can play right tackle, but they want him on the left side.
