Box safeties and slot corners after week 1 (6 Viewers)

[Tick]

Stuff that sticks out from looking at snaps. Numbers are snap percentage / percentage of snaps deep or outside. So 50/20 means they played 50% of snaps and 20% of the snaps they played were deep (safety) or outside (corner). First number is good if high, second is good if low.

I’m guessing that if a guy was >90% of snaps, his team intends to play him all the time. If he’s below 90%, his team is matching their opponent’s formation and it will change weekly. That’s really flawed, because maybe some of the guys above 90 are on teams that were matching a bunch of 3WR sets this week. But I’m making assumptions to jump on guys for the first waiver run.

Slot corners:
ARI G.Williams 100/36
BAL Humphrey 98/11
BUF T.Johnson 67/0 - uh oh
CIN Hill 97/27
IND Moore 94/0
JAC J.Lewis 100/9 - surprise to me!
KCC Conner 99/0
NYG Phillips 84/2
PHI DeJean 100/13
PIT Ramsey 100/19
SEA Witherspoon 100/13
WAS Sainristil 91/15

Not a slot corner:
GBP Nixon 100/93
HOU Pitre 92/0, but he’s a safety
LAR Lake 100/6, but he’s a safety

Looking at my leagues, targets on waivers are Jourdan Lewis, Dax Hill, Dru Phillips, and Garrett Williams

CAR Moehrig 100/11 - very boxy
CLE Delpit 100/21
DAL Wilson 100/40 - not bad
DET Branch 100/21
GBP Bullard 88/12 - sounds like a temp fill-in slot

JAC Wingard 98/30 - nice
KCC Hicks 60/18 - too few snaps
LVR Chinn 100/34
LAC James 100/7 !
LAR Lake 100/6
MIA Melifonwu 69/40 - too few snaps
SFO Pinnock 100/29 - surprise
SFO Sigle 100/21 - who? Wtf?

No Macri snaps yet for Chicago or Minnesota.

Another few notes:
ATL Watts 100/44 - good to see
BUF Bishop 100/53 - roughly same as Rapp
CAR Ransom 14/100 - drop
CIN Battle 100/69 - yuck
DEN Hufanga 100/56 - meh
DEN Jones 97/67 - yuck
GBP McKinney 100/66 as expected
GBP Williams 83/77 - gross
HOU Bullock 100/82 - stinky
IND Bynum 81/84 - blowout, but bad
LVR Pola-Mao 100/93 - the grossest
LAR Curl 100/60 - still bad
PIT ??? Elliott hurt, Chuck Clark in, Thornhill part time, everyone deep - avoid!
SEA love 100/62 - ruh roh
TBB Winfield 97/74 - does it matter?
WAS Martin 100/52 - mid

Signing Peppers so another mouth to feed.

Nothing on the NE guys. Both Woodson and Hawkins were great on the stat sheet. Looks like Woodson is more the box guy but Hawkins did get a sack and a pick. Both are available on my waivers and I am not sure which one to go after.

Yeah, Woodson 100/52, Hawkins 100/68. I have Woodson on my waiver prelim list but below the box guys.

I would lean Woodson.

These are great Tick! So helpful. Thank you.

Battle's boxscore had me assuming otherwise. He was awfully productive to be deep that often.

 

[Tick]

Minnesota:
Metellus 100/70 yuck!
Jackson 100/82 yucker

Chicago:
Byard 100/66 :-(
Brisker 100/48 deep more than expected
McCloud 82/7 - slot corner, probably matchup based

 

[Flying Elvis]

Love the effort Tick. TY.

McCloud is a backup that played because Kyler Murray popped up on the injury report for Sunday practice then was ruled out. Ask me how I know...

I didn't get to watch the entire Pat's game but I did see Hawkins with a few JAG-esque plays (bad angles, missed tackle, poor ball-in-air awareness) so I'm not sold yet. He did line up everywhere and was flying around. Despite starting Woodson, I didn't even know his jersey number and my viewing was sporadic so I can't comment much.

I should have noticed that - I have Kyler Gordon on 5/6 of my CB-required teams plus 2 more shares in DB leagues.

The Browns had success throwing the ball and couldn't run past the line of scrimmage probably had something to do with it
