We're still not in good shape at LB. Any ideas?

If Marvin was keeping Jefferson on the shelf for not understanding his STs instructions, then I completely agree with his lack of participation on defense.  The more little details I learn about Jefferson, like the STs stuff you just disclosed, the more I really question if Jefferson will ever see significant action.  At Texas, they basically used him like a pistol, just point and shoot.  In the NFL, it's not quite that simple, much cerebral understanding to be done before and during every play when you're a LB.
