Call me crazy but we need a big thumper to go along with Hawthorn in the middle, I like Lofton and he has done better than I expected but when a runner gets past the front 3 or 4 up front it lies on the ILB or ILB'ers to get the runner in the second tier. Our lb.'s got exposed badly yesterday and others will follow until we get a handle on it, Harper could have been used to his skill set yesterday to a tee. When we do draft I hope we get our man in the middle.
Not going to say you are wrong here, I like Lofton generally. Hicks got beat up front; he should never let the O-lineman get that close to him. Hick has crazy reach but fails to use it to lock out lineman, he has been a bit disappointing.

Even though I like Lofton I wouldn't mind drafting a good ILB. Can Sam Mills still play lol
Danno and Barry from MS like this.
