Fantasy Analysis
Now that Willis is back, it's time to get him in your lineup. Be sure to start him in all IDP formats. (Updated 01/01/2012).
Patrick Willis is a No. 1 Fantasy linebacker and one of the best players at his position. He has more than 100 total tackles in his first five years in the NFL, and that should continue this season. In 2011, Willis had 123 tackles (90 solo) with three sacks, three fumble recoveries and 13 passes defensed. Though teammate NaVorro Bowman out-produced him, Willis remains a consistent, safe Fantasy option. Plan on drafting Willis with a mid-round pick in all leagues, and he should be one of the first players drafted in all IDP leagues. (Updated 4/25/12)
