If the LB core sucks for another year, so be it
Cleveland tested ridiculously at the combine, but he still needs at least a year of adding strength. His tape, to me anyways, doesn't show the guy that tested. He's athletic as hell, but not very strong and he didn't dominate at his level of competition.
If I am a team with loads of talent, I could draft him and develop him over the next year and he could be a long term starter, but for our team, if we take a tackle, he has to start now at RT....just my opinion. And Isiah Wilson and Josh Jones are good candidates to be a mauling RT.
And I don't think the LB corps with suck if they wait until the third...there is probably more middle round starting talent at LB than any other position. Like I have said a number of times, the stars (finally) seem to be aligning for the Bengals.
