The former group are outside linebackers (as in edge rushers), while the latter group are middle linebackers, like Wilson, Pratt, Bailey, etc.
Okay, sounds good to me. Need all the pass rushers we can get. He just seems like a pass rushing Linebacker with his size.

I certainly did not expect all the undrafted ones to sign here but I expected at least a few considering our staff got an extra look at them and those guys had a chance to build a connection. We're a solid spot for him, he could compete and I think he's underrated and I find it criminal they didn't invite him to the Combine (not being a homer, I just like his game and what he brings).
Thanks, know nothing about Jake Sorenson. Is he a Slot WR or an outside guy, what size is he?

Johnston only played 13 games with us and the Panthers last year, but I think he was top 20 in the league in special teams tackles.
If Hicks runs a 4.48 he could be very good on special teams.
True, this is where you break into the league. On Special Teams, if Hicks does his job here he could earn a spot and we
could use him once in awhile in rushing the passer with his skills.
