Carl Granderson An IDP Sleeper In Week 1

Carl Granderson An IDP Sleeper In Week 1

one year ago

Saints defensive end Carl Granderson starts off his 2023 campaign with an extremely favorable matchup against the worst offensive line in the league, the Tennessee Titans. Granderson, who is entering his fifth year, made a career-high 5.5 sacks last season, 53 combined tackles, nine tackles for losses, and nine hits on opposing quarterbacks while only missing a single tackle. He was only on the field for 479 snaps, 45% of New Orleans' defensive volume, but that should change this season. After Marcus Davenport and David Onyemata left this past offseason, the Saints lack depth and are expected to keep Granderson on the field for a majority of snaps. This is a great week to see what Granderson can do with increased volume. The Titans offensive line ranks dead last in the league in the rankings of almost every major football analysis website, including PFF, Pro Football Network, Action Network, The 33rd Team, and Sharp Football Analytics.
