From the Bleacher report that Yaps posted, I love this evaluation of Stelz...

Craig Steltz, S

Steltz had a fine year last season in the Bears' defensive backfield when he got a chance to start. Steltz is a great player to be a back up, but he's not the worst guy to plug into the starting role either. He was on a pace last year to post 100 tackles if he had played the entire season. Obviously that doesn't necessarily mean he's a great safety because Charlie Peprah had 94 tackles last season in 15 games for the Packers, and Peprah sucks. However, Steltz still played a solid safety for the Bears and should be brought back.

The line about Peprah is classic...  Stelz is a very solid safety that will be a good third safety or plug in starter.  Perhaps with a better cast around, he would be very serviceable
