Both reys suck, Vigil we have no idea, Dansby is a FA. Everyone knows Burfict has a target on his back and some is justified, he just seems one play away from another suspension. Should we be more focused on a LB in the top 3 Rds. When you take a deeper look into this team there are holes all over the place. This is a huge make or break off season, even with all the draft picks (which they have to kill) we are still going to have to be more active in FA than usual with our own and bringing vets in.
No, he's just are only reliable LB right now. I think if Vigil continues to get more snaps he could be a solid LB, Vinnie is more of a solid backup/st guy in my eyes and we have yet to see the athletic LB Dawson get any meaningful playtime. Burfict instantly makes our defense go, yes he plays outside the lines from time to time, but he's a mean, nasty, don't give a shit type of ol' school player we've been lacking.
