Top 5 IDP (1 Viewer)

Urlacher is overrated. His tackle numbers are just not there.

Tatupu has potential, but I am not ready to make the leap of faith right away. He has to show more to make top 5. We are currently projecting him to increase his stats quite a bit from 2005, I am uncomfortable boosting his stats to the point of being top 5.

The no brainers:

Vilma

Bulluck

M Peterson

Then I add Adrian Wilson as #4.

For #5 it's a very tough choice. I could see an argument for a lot of guys, maybe R Lewis, Zach, D Edwards (all despite their age and/or injuries) or Tatupu / Urlacher (despite my counter-arguments above).

 
A lot depends on how you score. We score for:

Tackles 1pt

Assisted Tackles 1pt

FF 5 pts

FR 5 pts

Int 5 pts

Pass Defensed 1pt

Defensive TD's 10pts

Special Teams TDs 10pts

I'm not endorsing this system, I'm simply using it as an example. In that system the top 10 last year were:

LB THOMAS,ADALIUS BAL 227.70

LB PETERSON,MIKE JAX 217.80

LB VILMA,JONATHAN NYJ 0 212.20

LB FLETCHER,LONDON BUF 211.60

LB THOMAS,ZACH MIA 206.60

DL TAYLOR,JASON MIA 204.50

LB EDWARDS,DONNIE SD 203.00

LB BARNETT,NICK GB 198.20

LB BULLUCK,KEITH TEN 197.80

DB WILSON,ADRIAN ARI 193.30

Personally...this year in mind I'd say:

Mike Peterson

Vilma

Bulluck

Adrian

...Lofa I guess...(5th is tough...Lofa hasn't done enough to make me comfortable. )

Sure. Why not?BullockVilmaUrlacherPetersonLofa
I would put Adrian Wilson in the top 5.
I'm a LB whore. :) Depends on scoring too. And of course re-draft or dynasty. Just did it off the top of my head. Only sure ones are Bullocks and Vilma. Peterson maybe.We score tackles 2 ptsAssists 1Sacks 3
I agree that top 5 depends on the scoring system. Vilma Bulluck Peterson make it in all leagues I think. For spots 4-5 it depends. If you score tackles at 2 pts (high) and sacks are only worth 50% more than a tackle, then there is no way Urlacher is top 5. Tackles are too valuable. I think I would put Zach in the top 5 in redraft despite his age and injuries since he is a tackle monster with less big play potential.
 
not top 5 this year but i think next year s.merriman will crack the top 5 with his sack totals this guy could put up some freakish numbers.

 
Vilma, Jonathan NYJ LB

Peterson, Mike JAC LB

Bulluck, Keith TEN LB

Urlacher, Brian CHI LB

Tatupu, Lofa SEA LB
