I agree.
It's kind of odd that with our defensive line so good that our LB's are so bad.
re: Preston Brown - I knew he racked up a lot of tackles and was basically an above average LB, but he's really disappointing here.
I think some of our LB play has to be coaching. We have signed a free agent from other teams the past what 3-4 years and they've all underperformed. Also, I just don't see the young players improving much.
There are lots of teams in the NFL, that could take a 3rd Round LB and start him in his first year and he'd perform decent to in some cases, good. Here, we take a guy like Jefferson and he can't even see snaps...with a bad starter in front of him.
