nickerson was bad..... made me miss mr bowtie.
Haslett was terrible the last 3 years, really put a blemish on Marv's LB whispering ways lol

The real failure in my opinion was the front office drafting a bunch of duds. Hell, the only real LB that panned out was the one Lewis took a chance on as a UDFA in Burfict.
People probably wanted to draft another LB or 2, but we still have some young guys that have a little experience under their belt that should be better bets than a 5th-7th rounder this year.
Great points, Marv had the benefit of coaching some great players in Baltimore.
