Butler's path is clear and valuable: make the coverage units better, then be capable safety depth when the defense calls his number. That is not a glamorous role, but it is how good back-end rosters avoid being one injury from trouble.
Strengths: Special-teams leadership, safety depth and established roster fit.
Weaknesses: Limited path to a high-volume defensive role behind the starting group.
