Our LB is revamped, and went from below average to at least decent, and could be better depending on if simmons returns to beast form and Polley plays up to his full potential. How else exactly would w ehave gotten a cream of the crop LB? Polley and Foreman were rated as the two best LBs still available in FA, and we signed both of them.

Simmons and Fujita are better than what we had but come on now. I'm willing to say we did a very good job in FA but we still have a bottom 5 LB squad.
