Panthers: Crowded Field at Linebacker

Whoever we have in the middle, won't be nearly as good as Morgan is. He's a stud linebacker and when he's completely healthy, in my opinion I think he's one of the best. Injuries plagued his career but he's shown what he can do starting 15 16 games. They lost Witherspoon who was a key player, so I'd say we're about the same on the outside. Fuji is as solid as Diggs and I'd say a healthy and motivated Simmons will rival Davis who is still only in this second year. Collectively, I'd give them the edge because they have an established ProBowl middle linebacker. And... since they're very strong upfront, it's only going to widen the gap from there.
