The linebackers we have actually have the physical traits we should be looking for in terms of speed and athleticism. They are guys, that with the proper coaching, should excel in coverage just has not been the case thus far. What makes me point to coaching is that the coverage weakness is across the board not one or two players. So I as well feel this can be corrected with a coaching change.

As I stated there were many times in this draft that I wanted to select a LB but in doing so it would have been passing on greater value elsewhere to overdraft at the LB position.

Agreed, coaching has been our biggest problem, especially at Linebacker. Both Vigil and Evans covered well in college and are athletic. They need to get the fundamentals of tackling down and learn to read Defenses. Preston i thought played pretty good last year considering being in a new D, having new coaches and being injured.

With a new LB coach it might not be as bad as we all think but i still want to hedge my bet and get a good one in the Draft. Who knows if guys like Lonnie and Giles-Harris could be that good LB'er we are missing depth wise? Possible.

Maybe if there is one thing i might change in your mock it would be to go with a LB in round 3 like David Long Jr, West Virginia and draft Lindstrom in the 2nd...
