New Starting SSs (1 Viewer)

[Tick]

There are other new SS starters, but many of them are veterans we know. Some of the guys are rookies or haven't played much. Here's my list of them.

Detroit: Alexander

Giants: Butler

Jacksonville: Sensabaugh (or is he FS with Knight at SS?)

Carolina: Harris

Green Bay: Bigby

San Diego: Hart (Weddle problems)

Kansas City: Pollard

Miami: Bell (not technically new, but I never saw him last year)

How many of these guys are stop-gap players? (Bigby, Butler, Harris, Hart?)

Which are in the best scheme, regardless of their long-term outlooks? (Pollard, Hart?)

Which don't have the talent to capitalize even if they're in a good situation? (dunno)

Alexander is playing FS in Detroit; Kenoy Kennedy is at SS. Sammy Knight is starting at SS for the Jags, with Sensabaugh at FS.

Thanks for the info on Alexander - I got confused there.

I like Pollard. Bigby is just a stop gap imo. Rouse isn't ready yet.

I'm seriously liking Butler this year. Yeah...seriously.

I seriously agree. Also, I thought I read where the Lions were waiting till after week 1 to sign Darius, that way they don't have to guarantee his salary.I'm also thinking Bigby could be more than a stop gap.

It may be Von Hutchins for a week or so in Houston, but Boulware long term. Other than maybe Boulware, none of these replacements are going to be great pickups unless you play in a very deep (> 60 starters) league.

Well, you can take YBell off the list, as he's headed to IR. I liked Butler the best of the list anyway, and he turned in a decent performance (6-2 tackles/assists)

Alexander is playing FS in Detroit; Kenoy Kennedy is at SS. Sammy Knight is starting at SS for the Jags, with Sensabaugh at FS.

Kennedy is supposedly playing SS - 1 assist.

What about Oshimogo Atogwe from the Rams? Is he a FS or SS?

Was his 10 tackles a one-week wonder?
