I am a fan of Short, I had him all season last year. Even a Tigers fan in my work league thought I was crazy picking him at the start of the season, but he got him in mid-late season at a much higher price - should have listened.
I had considered him this year as well prior to last night, but there's too many good defender options. I think he had only been in a few of my team iterations, but I do think he is one that should as a minimum hold his starting value this season. Still not convinced he finishes as a top 6 defender, but he shouldn't be far off it, and could be one these new rules really help. I'll probably end up on this particular Tiger band wagon, but it will depend on how I structure my team.
