I want to watch Reed play one more season before I anoint him as a legit starting SS in this leauge.

If you read what i wrote i mention that he was playing at a high level due to the death. Also that i hope he wasn't playing over his head because theres recievers in our league who will torch us. He started what 5-6 games and ended what 50 tackles by what stat u say. due the math avg 9 tackles a game will leave him with 144 tackles by season end!!IF HE HAPPENED TO KEEP THAT PACE AND WITHOUT INJURY OF COURSE . Thats Stud caliber with those numbers. I know you love and miss Sean. And to think of another player in his spot is like cheating on your wife by looking at the hot hostess. But the boy got game whether its run stopping or defending the pass.

First of all I don't want one of our safeties making 144 tackles. If Reed is making 144 tackles then there is something seriously wrong with our D-line and LB's. You don't consider a safety a stud by how many tackles he has. Like I said I want to watch Reed for one more year before I decide if he's legit at SS for us, but I do have my doubts.
