The sarcasm is thick with this one.

He’s played 5 games in his career. Couple for Jax and a couple for NE.
LB removed from list of needs.

He was on our PS last year briefly before the Jags signed him. He is a PS level guy who will compete with Heyward & Njongmeta for LB4/LB5.
If you wanted Joe Bachie back, this is probably bad news.
The guy has no stats at all. 2 tackles in two years. I'm not seeing it.
We shoulda signed TJ Watt
This is essentially instead of using a day 3 pick on a LB.
Building out the LB depth room.
Better than nothing. We need LB depth.

This can't be. We have no 13th round draft pick.
This isn't the guard we were looking for.
Back of the roster type of signing for competition in OTA's. No big deal.
Dalton Risner would be the one I would get a touch excited for, but this is just filling roster space with Giles-Harris.
The LB I think could surprise this year is Shaka Heyward who played damn good late last season.

Agreed. And I like Burks a lot. Though he may be shell shocked here coming from Philly.

At least here Burks will get a shot. Crazy how much talent has been in front of him his entire career. I just hope our DL makes a big jump
this year to free up our LB's to make plays. Burks is one heck of a run stopper, which is exactly what we needed. Shaka Heyward is young
though and with great bloodlines and looked pretty fantastic to me late last season against both the run and rushing the passer.
Hodges our new LB coach has a couple good ones to work with and I wouldn't be surprised if we added another talent in the Draft.
If Logan can stay healthy, he is the one clear starter, it looks like Pratt has been told he will be a 2 down LB after last season which is why
he sought a trade this Offseason.
