The linebackers are fine. They will potentially get another late guy or veteran to fill out the roster as I am assuming we will see more 3-4 looks so we will only need 2 off-ball linebackers on the field at any given time. They are all young guys and the team has said they are excited about their growth. Wilson showed flashes at times last year and I think the others will continue to grow.
Off-ball linebacker is really one of those positions that you don't have to be great at to have a good defense, but you can't be god-awful. We should be good enough there where they aren't a massive liability that derails any success as we have seen in the past.
