Well first of all he has primarily played strong safety in his career which Troy already plays, I'm assuming he could easily transition to free safety but who knows if he'll be as effective in that position.

Secondly he can't stay healthy for more than 3 games, although when he is healthy his play is up there with Troy's and Ed Reed's.

If he would stay healthy I would have no problem, we'd have by far the best safety tandem possibly in NFL history, but I doubt he could stay healthy and I doubt he would come cheap either, so I don't think so.

true. both there playing styles have them injured constantly so as long as you never play them together we should be fine. just let sanders start the season then troy can step in when sander goes down around week 6 or 7 and hopefully troy will remain healthy with the limited action for the playoffs
