Darrell Stuckey (1 Viewer)

Nightly Mistake

Footballguy
He's been a healthy scratch from the lineup. Does anyone have any insight into why he's not playing? Is he having a tough time learning the defense?

Any idea when or if he starts to play?

 
Steve Gregory is really good. As good as Weddle. Stuckey is not passing him on the depth chart any time soon, pick up Gregory instead.

How good is Gregory Sig? I looked at his stats from last season and nothing stands out as exceptional. I don't get to see the Chargers at all. Was he a starter last season?
 
I believe Gregory moved over to SS and Weddle over to FS. I remember reading another post on here someplace where a poster suggested that Gregory would be getting Weddle-like stats for the rest of the year. I have not watched the Chargers though this season, so I'm not usre.

 
Gregory's currently the 60th-ranked S (not DB) in redraft according to Norton, and lower than that according to Rudnicki. That's like a 5th or 6th safety on a good team, but of course you'd never carry that many. Certainly it's better than Stuckey now, but . . . :confused:

Well, Gregory's got the 2nd most tackles of the FAs available in my league (start 2 DB, so not "deep" by any means). Also, he ranks 19th overall.week 1: 7 solo week 2: 8 solo / 5 assists (a home game; is SD scoring generous with tackles??? Could be a consideration this week)week 3: 4 soloBut that's all the scoring he has. Not even 1 pass defensed this year. Not sure how the use him, or if sacks are at all likely (only has 2 in his career).
 
Gregory has looked really good in the games I've seen live.

I've plugged him in my starting lineup and I'm letting him ride.

 
With Gregory now suspended for 4 games, Stuckey may get a shot.

NFL suspended Chargers SS Steve Gregory four games for violating the league's policy against Performance Enhancers.Positive PED tests are nothing new for the Chargers, who will be without their leading tackler until Week 9. The team's bye doesn't fall until Week 10. Rookie Darrell Stuckey and veteran Paul Oliver are candidates to take over at strong safety, but Gregory is a big loss for a defense that's exceeded expectations early in the year. He was an every-down player for a Bolts club that currently leads the NFL in total defense and ranks fourth against the pass.Source: Kevin Acee on Twitter
 
so, would Stuckey replace Gregory at SS or would they slide Weddle back over to Strong and have Stuckey slip in at Free?

Neither. Oliver will be starting, not Stuckey.

At SS or FS?I'm really more curious to see if Weddle will move over to SS and start getting good numbers again or if Gregory's replacement is filling in at SS.ETA: Nevermind, just saw the rotoworld report that Oliver will be SS and Weddle will remain at FS.

Darrell Stuckey has only 4 tackles through the first 7 games this season. I haven't watched the Chargers play this year, but my guess is those 4 tackles are all from special teams.

Does Stuckey hold any value in Dynasty Leagues or will he always be a special teams player? I'm about ready to jump ship on this guy.
