Cut Bait? Cedric Griffin, Kelsay.

[Misfit74]

With a recent ACL injury to Cedric Griffin, I'm wondering if he's still worth a roster spot? Usually, I'll play a Safety over him anyway. My other DBs (we start 2, PPG Averages below):

Griffin, Cedric MIN CB | 8.933
Collins, Nick GBP S | 8.617
Manning, Danieal CHI S | 10.083
Weddle, Eric SDC S | 11.288

Also, with Buffalo's switch to a 3-4, is Chris Kelsay's value going to take a huge hit? (What value? 6.9 PPG LOL)

Re: Griffin
I'm in a similar situation as you. Griffin was my 6th highest scoring DB but started him just 4x (we start 3 DBs). With the ACL injury happening in week 17 he'll probably end up on PUP and miss all of OTA. I read that he expects 5-8 months recovery but that is probably an optimistic expectation. Normally ACL recovery takes longer than 8 months. Unfortunately I need to make a decision by March 15 and he isn't going to make the cut simply because of the injury.

Not sure about Kelsay. I think the switch to 3-4 is going to kill any value he may have had.

I'd hang on to Griffin if you can afford to wait on him.

Chris Kelsay may be looking for work. He won't be a starting DE, and he doesn't have the athleticism to be an OLB.
