Shaq Lawson

Shaq Lawson released by the Jets.... wouldn't be bad depth off waivers

[magikod]

For a second I thought you meant Carl Lawson.

Yeah Shaq Lawson wouldn't be the worst pickup, good depth and cheap price.

[QueenCity]

Sure could use him...... can we sign still?

Good question, I like our starting 3 guys but good depth behind them in Shaq Lawson could help.

I like how Bailey is playing behind Pratt and Wilson right now though, that is for sure especially in coverage.

I do like how our LB corps has progressed from being a major liability to one of respectable play and promise for the future.  A guy like Shaq Lawson would definitely be good depth, but drafting a player like Nakobe Dean would turn our LB corps from respectable to dominant in a matter of one year.

Need to check out Nakobe Dean. Been too high on this ride to really look at the Draft too closely at this time.

Yeah same here.
Its a nice feeling not already checking out mock drafts, and best prospects, etc. this time of year!

If you like smart, athletic LBs that can diagnose, cover and lay the wood, then you're going to love watching Nakobe Dean.

Yeah, I like Dean, but he won't be there at 32....

Sure is a nice feeling, never had it.

This time of year I am in the Draft forum dreaming of what picks fit our needs to most.

Hope this goes on for at least a couple more weeks.

That is what I like in my Linebackers.

Oh well, that would of meant we won the SB, I could live with that.

I bet ravens or Steelers end up with him 

[SuperBowlBound!]

I like Dean a lot as well. He reads the play fast and seems very quick.
He may be a little undersized for an NFL linebacker.
Kind of between a safety and LB. May have a problem matching up against NFL TE's

Dean - 6' 225lbs

Logan Wilson 6'2 241 lbs
Germaine Pratt 6'3 245 lbs
Joe Bachie 6'2 236 lbs
Markus Bailey 6'0 236 lbs

You think he could fall to 32 for the reasons you list? I don't personally care how big a LB is, if they are instinctive, tackle and
cover well that is all that matters especially in the NFL of today where you those big, stack LB's have became ghosts of the past.
