Alex Olgetree? Clay Matthews? Golden? "x"?

I love the young talent, however seasoned vets are what I most covet during playoff time. Experience = limiting mistakes when it's one and done time. Guys making plays when it matters most.

I do recall we were interested in Jamie Collins.

Maybe not, but I believe it's a lot better than people are giving it credit...

I'm certainly hopeful but this unit was one of the weakest (THE weakest?) unit on the team last year.

I'm excited to see how Baun will contribute this season but it is not currently considered a very good LB group.

Jersey number update... Ruiz will indeed be keeping his #51.

I'd think our pass rush at the end of the season was the weakest...

San Fran game? Kirk Cousins & the Vikings?

If I remember right, Klein had a great game Wk 17 including half dozen tackles and a Pick-6...

I know that there is still talent out there waiting on the dust to settle from the draft. Our front office will probably make an addition or two from the remaining free agents for specific roles. Then there's always the option of wading through everyone else's discards looking for a gem. We never leave a stone unturned.

Other than Davis the other LB's are average or good but often injured.
If healthy, on paper, the LB group should be the bee's knees.

And Shack, that's really the knock on that unit is health...

From reading Anzalone's social media updates, he really believes his current medical advisors are finally going to put him past his chronic history he's had since he was at Florida...

Am concerned about Kiko breaking down, but he is still relatively young...

Kaden Elliss injury came out of left field, but he bounced back quickly, as had UDFA 2019 Chase Hansen - who's going to wow lots of fans this season...

We may have a case where Robertson is our least talented LBer - that's a helluva floor (and milestone) for this team considering we've not had LBers since the Dome Patrol...

I stated in another thread that I'm drinking the Kool-Aid on the LB'S. Health is a big issue.
What makes this more exciting is, even though he's listed as a DE, Hendrickson is a tweener and if he can stay healthy, the pass rush will not allow QB's any time to get a pass off.
