Bucannon or Cyprien

I picked up Bucannon last week because of the match up and he won me my match up. Now I can't decide if I should stick with him or go back to Cyprien. On the one had Cyprien is such a dynamic player on that defense, but Bucannon plays more of a linebacker role, and has scored a little better per game this season. I don't want to chase the points from last week, because pick-sixes aren't something you can predict, but I am wondering if he gets more tackle opportunity with Mathieu out. Or will the opposite happen and he is forced to play more in coverage to make up for his absence?

Re: Bucannon or Cyprien

I think if anything Bucannon may get less opportunity with Mathieu out (if they move him back into more of a traditional safety role). GB does not throw a lot of INTs, so his production will likely have to come from straight tackles. I like Cyprien a little better this week against NO.
