I'm not sure if Nelson had 17 missed tackles in his entire career as a Bengal and Bates did that in one season.
Nelson, as a Bengal, is in Fulcher/Casanova territory, Bates is not.
I'm assuming most of the support for Bates is from people still in their 20s. "He had a good year once" sounds kind of hollow when measured with the consistency of Nelson. The drop off from Nelson to the pathetic Shawn Williams was drastic and I was shocked at how many people on here that thought that he was a good safety. He was the poster child for being two steps behind almost every play. With that said, all Hill has to do is not suck and he'll replace Bates just fine.
