Yeah, Bengals have been hit or miss at linebacker at least since the beginning of the Marvin Lewis era. It really is nice to have two guys who **we drafted** now extended for their second contracts with us. They may not be the best in the game, but they are good enough and I will never forget that Germaine Pratt helped us seal the deal on winning our first playoff game in 30+ years. 

Edit: I am trying to think of our linebackers who contributed since 2003. Of course there is Burfict. Most of the other guys were flashes in the pan: Mannie Lawson and Thomas Howard, Odell Thurman, Rey Muauluga (he was with us for awhile but his peak performance was brief I think). Any others that are worth mentioning?
