Fantasy Football Outlook: Can Dontari Poe make a big impact in the middle? Poe is quickly becoming one of the more polarizing prospects from the 2012 draft, and if he’s up to the challenge of giving this team quality snaps; this defense will be a fantasy sleeper.
Getting star safety Eric Berry back is a major plus, and he will make an impact in the run and passing game.
They should also be helped by the offense, as Jamaal Charles and Peyton Hillis are going to run against the easiest schedule in the league, on paper. A good running game will keep the defense fresh, which is what we saw from them in 2010, and it helped them be a relevant squad to start.
Tamba Hali is still one of the best pass rushers in the game, and in Brandon Flowers they have one of the better physical corners in the game.
I’m disappointed they lost out on keeping fellow corner Brandon Carr but free agent Stanford Routt should do an adequate job. All in all, this is a group to keep on your radar, but likely avoid on draft day, unless you’re looking to keep two defenses.
