I have always said I really liked the potential of our young LBs.
Last year I predicted that Pratt would have a breakout year because he looked so good the last 4 games of '19. That didn't happen, but I still like his potential.
I did not make any hard predictions about ADG and Wilson, but I said many times that I really liked their potential. In fact I still think Bailey could develop into a good NFL LB, but he is just buried on the depth charts right now.
And the big thing to remember is that our DTs last year were horrible. Just as bad as our OGs. This year we have one of the better DT duos in the league in Reader and Ogunjobi. And that is not just subjective fanboy judgement. The numbers show that in '18-'19 Ogunjobi and Reader were two of the most productive DTs in the league. Those two, along with the rest of the D-line, are one of the main reasons the LBs are looking so good.
