In 4 seasons, he amassed a grand total of 154 combined tackles, 1 INT, 9 PD. He does have 18.5 career sacks, but his career high of 7 came in his rookie year, however he does have 44 QB hits to his credit.
So, even though he listed as a LB, he's really an edge guy, with pedestrian stats at that. I'm willing to bet money that after 4 years in the league, Sam Hubbard's edge stats will dwarf those of Leonard Floyd. No thanks on giving Floyd a big free agency pay day.
I've also cooled a bit on Kwiatkoski. I think that he's good raw material, but still needs a bit of development, in order to be relied upon to be "the man". I'm think that if the Bears thought he was a finished product, they would have worked to sign him over Trevathon.

Opened my eyes here Sunset, thanks. We also have Lawson who is a great edge to go along with Hubbard. Floyd has just
impressed me lately when I have watched him play. I have always been a little meh on Kwiatkoski anyways. Nigel Bradham
is flying up my list as of late with Trevathan now off the table.
