People keep talking about linebackers that rush, except 4-3 linebackers don't really rush especially middle linebackers. Last year, ironically, Bobby Wagner lead all middle linebackers with 4.5 sacks. Defensive lineman in a 4-3 rush, linebackers cover and stop the run. In our defense specifically we blitz safeties and corners more than linebackers.
I'm not a fan of MLB at 9, but Foster really is a good talent. He is as good as Ragland or Mosley coming out.
I don't see it. Foster isn't even great at creating turnovers.
Really the positives for him is that he is a hard hitter and he can roam the field well for a small Linebacker.
I would rather have an athletic freak like Reddick over this guy that i expect to disappear in the NFL.

True, great insurance.

It would be which is why i would like the pick as it would be telling.
We will learn a lot about where this team wants to go with that first pick at 9.
Foster is really the only guy i would not be ecstatic about for the reasons i mentioned.
