He's your classic buy low. I don't see any reason why he won't be a Top 10 safety next season. Other than the sacks his numbers were close to last years per game.
I think Wilsons drop in numbers reflects the improved defensive scheme now in place in AZ and I do not expect his numbers to return to previous dominace at the DB position.

That's my thought too. The guy's still a stud in NFL standards, but now that he actually has some defenders worth talking about in front of him, he doesn't figure to be making as many plays anymore.
I think Dansby is making plays that Wilson used to make. Much less of a gamble to blitz a LB than a S. Also, Dansby, Pace and Hayes make up 3/4 of a very good LB corps.
IMO it's much too early to give up on him now. You're taking about a guy who this time last year was seen as the top db to have and frankly he was producing like it this season until about week 5 or so then he had to battle injury throughout the rest of the year.
I am by no means meaning to say one should give up on him. I think he is one of the most solid DB plays available. I just think he isn't a lock to be top 5 or top 10 anymore like he has been for most of his career so far. I still expect his to give consistent tackle numbers with big play ability and be in the top 24 for DBs. I just think the defense around him has improved to the point that he wont be so dominant anymore.
I mentioned in another post about what Wilson did in the game against the Lions, before he was hurt. Prior to that game, he had complained about how he was being used. Then, in the Lions game, he was playing much closer to the line than he had all season, and also blitzed at least twice in the approximately quarter and a half that he played, and he came close to a couple of sacks. His statline did not show how well he played. He was dominant.
While I can't say for sure how this plays out next year, I expect Wilson to be at or near the top of the DB scoring as he has been in the past. He is a definite buy low in my opinion.
The term "injury prone" is badly overstated in a lot of cases. Unless the players injuries are something chronic/recurring, then I do not consider them injury prone for the most part. There are exceptions of course, but, for example, if a player breaks his fibula one year, maybe misses 6 games, then has some kind of shoulder injury the next year and misses 10 games, does that mean he is injury prone? Not a chance in my opinion. If a player blows his knee out because his foot got stuck in the turf, then the following year lands awkwardly on his shoulder and separates it, does that mean he is injury prone? I think it means he was in the wrong place at the wrong time.The NFL is a tough sport and players are going to get hurt from time to time, and some will be lengthy. But unless it is a chronic problem to the same part of his body, I don't worry about it too much. There are some exceptions of course.Dansby doesn't qualify as injury prone, in my opinion.
