Obviously they have to know their assignment based on the offenses pre-snap alignment but once the ball is snapped for a good/great LB instinct takes over. When a guy thinks too much at LB plays are missed. Of course occasionally rookie backers will get sucked in on misdirection plays but the really good ones learn from those plays and their ability to read the entire play improves. Let's hope we got at least 2 keepers from the draft.
On offense I've always felt RB was the equivalent to LB play. Know where you're going and let your talent take over from there.
I think Pratt showed enough last season that we can feel pretty good about him. Would be thrilled if 2 of the 3 drafted pan out. If if weren’t for injuries I like the film of the kid from Purdue the most.
