Fantasy Analysis
Timmons, in his fifth NFL season, was finally able to record his first sack on Saturday. He now has 87 tackles on the year and can be considered a low-end Fantasy LB heading into the regular season finale against the Browns. (Updated 12/24/2011).
Lawrence Timmons is hoping to play bigger and better in 2012 after his numbers declined in his third year as a starter for the Steelers. He totaled 93 tackles with two sacks, one interception, one forced fumble and five passes defensed -- an across-the-board drop without missing a game. Timmons is tough to call a 100-tackle candidate given than he's done it once in his pro career, but with the Steelers moving on from James Farrior, Timmons might get his nose dirty more often. Figure him for a No. 2 Fantasy linebacker worth a mid-round pick at best. (Updated 4/24/12)
