M Brown, B. Chillar, A. Davis big FF games (1 Viewer)

Id grab M.Brown as WHEN HE IS HEALTHY the guy is a ballhawking stud. Problem is playing for KC can be a double-edged sword given his injury history he's not a guy you want to be on the field as much as KC's def will be this year.. As for the others Chillar looked good (especially that hurdle/sack!!) but with the talent around him may cause games like these to be to inconsistant to rely on. Can see Hawk/Barnett/Chillar alternating good #'s every other week. A.Davis?? Davis may be worth a grab also. DEN will spend alot of time on DEF and their upcoming schedule is very nice for either of the 2 LB's(OAK, SD 2x, DAL,WASH, BAL, PIT, NYG)

 
Definitely agree on Mike Brown, he has always been a beast, just can not stay healthy and he usually has season ending injuries, he doesn't play around with any week to week wuss injuries.

Chillar will always be on the field, unlikely his production will be consistent due to the facts mentioned above.

Andra has always been average linebacker in mho, he just seems to be in a good tackle friendly situation.

 
Buyer beware on all three of these guys.

Mike Brown benefited from a great matchup and well above-average tackle opportunity as well as two of the weaker ILBs in the league playing in front of him. He's in the Bob Sanders mold at this point in his career, though -- he makes for a great start when he's healthy, but you can expect that he'll hurt you when he leaves an upcoming game early and you'll need a viable backup plan for the subsequent weeks he misses.

Andra Davis will not play in the nickel and is subject to the painful week-to-week volatility that goes with it. He'll have a handful of 6-7 solo tackle weeks, but is more likely to finish with four solos or less in most weeks.

Brandon Chillar should hold some value for another couple of weeks until Nick Barnett is ready to play every-down. The Packers chose to play more nickel than usual against the Bears. They had nickel personnel on the field in plenty of two WR formations, presumably to bracket Greg Olsen with strong LB/S coverage options. The coaches praised AJ Hawk's run play after the game, implying that Chillar won't be an every-down player anytime soon. When Barnett is ready to play, Chillar will be the foil to guys like Andra Davis. He could get 20% of the snaps, he could get 80%.
