Until that happens I'm all for keeping him on the roster.

On the other hand, since no one has been able to beat him out it appears our front office and scouting department doesn't know jack squat about NFL linebackers.

He knows our system. If he does get beat out then he will be a servicable backup at the very least. Even if Shanle remains a starter we have beefed up our LB corps enough to where we will still be better than last year.
