He ranks just ahead of the player he replaced -- Karlos Dansby.
We know he is a playmaker. We can count on 100+ tackles, a few sacks, interceptions and fumble recoveries or forced fumbles. He just makes plays.
He plays in a scheme that showcases linebackers and expects them to make plays. The scheme combined with his speed and prowess in being where the ball is make him an overall solid pick in fantasy leagues on the defensive side of the ball.
There really aren't many other players at his position aI would take over him, but then again, I am unabashedly faithful to my team's players when it comes to things like fantasy leagues.
