Jerod MayoLINEBACKERS

Wasn’t I the wacky guy who ranked Posluszny at #2 and Stephen Tulloch at #7 last year? I think I was! ;)

My new additions to the Top-10 this year include David Hawthorne, who no longer has to deal with Lofa Tatupu in his way, and Packers linebacker Desmond Bishop. Bishop could easily be one of the better IDP values this year as one of the few three down players in that linebacker corps.

Another player to monitor is a long time favorite of mine, Rey Maualuga, who finally is slated to start at middle linebacker in Cincinnati. While Stephen Tulloch was wildly productive last year, I’m not sure that he can have the same impact in Detroit because he might not be a three down player in the Motor City.

    Hmm, not a big fan of Harris or Ryans. Is that based on talent, oppurtunities, or both? I see some people sliding Harris because Jets O will control the ball but still like him more than Tulloch, Levy, Cushing, Washington, and Bracket.

    In the league where I have the two (start 3 LBs), I’m looking to acquire either the POZ (love the fact he plays NYJ & MIA (2) each, and some other strong RUN teams this year) or Lofton.
