Hence the constant need for LB year after year and only using 3rd round and later picks on the position. If Wilson works out I think we can make do for another year and be quite a bit improved actually.
For starters we don’t use 3 LB’s all that often. We added what’s his name from Bal. Drafted Wilson. Have Pratt who finished the year strong, and now have 3 legit Safety’s so I think we’ll see them helping out in this roll as well. I’d love another LB but I doubt the bengals pick one here. I’d also prefer Dye for his style over ADG but I won’t complain about either. Plus maybe dye falls to the 5th? Probably not but they may not be able to pass at that point
They value it enough to go after Schobert in FA, and use a 3rd round pick on one over OT’s like Josh Jones and others.
We need depth at the position. An injury to Pratt or Bynes, and we’re in a bad spot.
