Grid, you are awesome but this ain't going to work
He isn't a pass rusher. He can't really run w. TE's or RB's.
Strong Argument, Alpha Video Crunch Brother.
You Zeroed in on the ONLY weak spot on my entire Roster. I am NOT comfortable with Spikes at Flanker. He is far better as a Mid Fielder. Why put him there, then? Because I MUST have Burfict, a Once In a Generation guy...and I love Spikes...Indeed, it was a choice between putting HIS name up there, or that of Ninkovich, who I like...And you can be sure it was a 50/50 deal...My question to you, though, is: If Coach Bill The Mad is regularly lining up Spikes at Flanker ~ OLB, to you Earthlings!! ~ are you SURE he can't cut it??
My perception of the Mid Backers is more complex than I saw fit to blurb, in any case: I see overlapping roles, between each other, and between the Defensive End/Flanker/Heffalump Complex...Very mercurial, is a Belichickian Defense...
And the more Fletcher plays, the better.
But, to recap: Are you sure he can't play Flanker? Coach Bill The Mad thinks he can.
Not that THAT is a Trump Card, in my view...just an interesting point.
What think ye?
