LBs this year (1 Viewer)

[guidomerkinsrules]

So it seems like the LB room probably had the biggest jump in quality this year
We might finally have someone who can defend against a mobile QB and we might be able to cover TEs and RBs
This at a time when overall LB play has been fading

How much can our new LBs help in the overall D?

On paper it looks like we have some depth and some talent. I am all aboard the Willie Gay hype train, I think he will come in and pair with DD to form a formidable duo with Werner providing depth.

DA certainly like disguising coverages - having 3 lbs with some positional fluidity on the field might be a very good thing

Sig, I can't believe 35 minutes have passed and no snide comments, LOL. We are showing maturity around here, I guess. LOL

Don't sleep on Jaylan Ford. High football IQ and excels in coverage. Potential to be the steal of the draft for the Saints...

Right? I must admit I chuckled like a kid when I typed it. lol and I'm almost 50. I'll never grow up.

We'll have to see how it plays out, but I think Gay ends up being depth, and Werner starts if/when healthy. He's one of our best players when he's out on the field.

I do not get the Werner hate, he is a sideline to sideline player.

I agree about Werner.

I think we'll see more 3 LB sets when down/distance call for it and I think we'll see more of a 3 man rotation keeping all 3 guys fresh. You may have Werner/Davis as the "named" starters but I also bet all 3 get significant playing time.

Agree 100%...

I’m also pro-Gay. He also isn’t the first Gay to play for the Saints.

He has a debilitating lack of swag. That's it.
