I am not trying to be a dick, but the only LB out there slower than Preston Brown was Burfict. I hope that changes, but I am not very optimistic.
I honestly believe Burfict is still a huge help because of his ability to diagnose plays, so I would much rather see Burfict at MIKE, Evans at WILL, and VIGIL at SAM.
I guess Burfict will have to be out there in nickel, and most likely with Vigil, but we sure have a need for an instinctual, fast LB that can play both MIKE and nickel.
I would put that as priority #1 for the defense right now.
We could trade Ross for Khalil Mack. Trubusky needs a #1 receiver that can help him score to win games.
