You could say Pratt is in his prime but he will continue to mentally grow in this system. All we are missing is a dominant pass rush guy. We had that and we’ve got the best line backing core in the league imo
You definitely could argue that our guys are the best at what they do. ADG can rush the passer, but is rarely asked to.
Just the way it is in Lou's system.

And most consider Watt and End, same as Parsons on the Cowboys. You put Parsons or Watt on this list and they shoot up to the top.

San Francisco is the undisputed #1
Baltimore #2
Kansas City edges out Cincy at #3.
Warner and Greenlaw are damn good, I know nothing about the other LB listed for San Fran though.

SFF
SEA
KCC (BAL is probably more talented but they have the question of a rookie)
Wagner is up there in age and Tranquill has a hard time staying healthy. Even the question of a rookie, I take the Ravens over the
Squawks and Chefs. Roquan Smith makes up for any rookie questions. Dude is the best LB in the league IMO.
