For the past few years our LBs have been plain bad. They can't stop the run and they can't cover TEs and RBs out the backfield. God forbid I ever see a Sedrick Hodge trying to cover Randy Moss again. I know it doesn't help in the run game when the DTs can't take on blockers and let the linebackers use their speed to make plays, but nonetheless this has been a weak point in the D. Bockwoldt is steadily progressing but Im not sure he can be the playmaker of the corps. Fincher played like a rookie last season looking sharp at sometimes and completely lost in others. Melton has never been anything more than just a special teams player. Fujita and Simmons have had good seasons in the past with KC and SEA, but havent been heard of much the past couple of years. I just wanted to hear everyone's take on the LB corps and whether or not this collection of guys can keep our front seven from being a detriment to the D.
