Man we just spent a 2nd and 3rd round pick on LB’s these past two years. What is the vision??

Depth, for sure. Kirwan and Miller have spent the last few days on Moving The Chains delving into the interior LB corps of all the teams in the league. In their grading, quality experience throughout the LB corps is vital. You can't have too many good players especially when they are already familiar with your scheme. As you know, LB's are also a very important part of the special teams play.

Alexander isn't particularly the finest technician in his play, but he is a non-stop motor.

First off, glad Kwon’s rehab went well.

In the handful of games last season, there was a noticeable difference with Alexander playing alongside Demario.

Offer a contract full of bonuses. Another proven vet with playmaking ability and familiarity in the system. No idea what they plan on doing with Baun.

I hope he re signs with us.

Well, you usually dress seven LB's on the roster. I'm sure Baun will have his place. Ourlads has him slotted at Sam, with Demario at Mike and Werner at Will. Coming off an injury Alexander may just be depth. God forbid anything happen to Davis, but Baun can move inside wouldn't you think?

Um, I'm sure I'm not the only one, but what is your message based upon some random gif? It looks like the dude is relieved. I agree. Nice add for depth.

Because like others here I recall how well the linebacker play was with Kwon Alexander paired with Demario Davis?

And you are the only one...

No. I meant what does the gif mean? I don't get what the guy is doing. It could be that what he saw on his laptop is ridiculous or something. I took it as relief. I was wondering if you thought the same.

Pay the man! We need him. When he played next to DD our defense took three steps forward. Once again, I think we need him even as a depth player who is likely to end up on IR.
