Robertson, Klein, and Te'o could turn out to be a great group though. We'll have to see.

While I am on the three wheeled Klien band wagon I understand the risk with the signing and love the contract. I put a twenty on Klien in Vegas to be the FA steal of the year. yep twenty is as rich as I would go. But he is the #1 signing I am looking forward to seeing the impact he has

To the point I would stress versatility even in the draft for as many picks as possible. Yep I see our defense once again leading the way in 2018 as the side of the ball in the biggest need of talent upgrades no matter how many picks you use on defense.

So all the LB in round 1 are not a needs on my needs list. All the signings and a mid to late round LB that has upside and proven flex is all I would spend at LB this year.

Let see how this LB corp shakes out and address other areas thinner than LB
