Fantasy Analysis
Lofton was limited in practice last week with an ankle injury, but didn't seem to be bothered by the issue as he finished the regular season with a career-high 147 tackles. The 25-year-old remains a solid option worthy of a selection in the early rounds of 2012 Fantasy drafts. (Updated 01/01/2012).
02/09/2012 05:41 Top 50 free agents: Former top pick Williams is top player on open market
The offseason is officially here and it's time to rebuild. Which free agents will command the most attention? Pete Prisco offers his top 50 and says don't look for any players over 30 or running backs near the top.
Falcons LB Curtis Lofton took a little step back in his third season but was still helpful to Fantasy owners. He led the team in total tackles with 118 (93 solo) and picking up three passes defensed and forced fumbles in the process. Lofton also picked up two sacks and an interception. In leagues that reward tackles, Lofton is a solid No. 2 Fantasy LB worth a middle-round pick. He's still relatively under the radar, which makes him a low-risk choice in drafts this summer.
