Mercilus/Freeney/Galette

Besides having a really cool name, what do you think of him as I have not seen you mention him in any of your guides. I have been picking him up off the waiver wires of some of my drafts ( I play in 20 team leagues).

1. He is a 3 down LB per your outstanding listing

2. He has had good reviews and been called the rushing/blitzing LB

3. He plays on one of the best defensive teams IMO

4. In ESPN leagues he has DE/LB eligibility making him a no-brainer as a DE in a deep league IMO

I just think he will have a very good year if he can stay healthy. What do you think?

Also, curious about your feelings  with Dwight Freeney and Junior Galette. These are two more guys with that DE/LB eligibility in ESPN leagues and that is very helpful during bye weeks. I'm not sure if Freeney has anything left in the tank, but I read that they want him to play every down. NO is supposed to have a bad defense, but they are predicting Galette will lead them in sacks.

Again, I have been picking these guys up in deep leagues mainly because of that dual eligibility, but I'm wondering if they might not sneak into the LB2 and DE1 category. Thank you

Re: Mercilus/Freeney/Galette

I don't think Freeney or Galette have DL1 or LB2 value. Mercilus can approach DL2-DL2+ numbers, however.
