Also there been a lot of hyping up Pratt, Wilson and Davis-Gaither even tho they could turn out like every other 3rd and 4th round backers we have drafted. Hope I'm wrong we had a great offseasn and it would have been impossible to fill every need. I hope the kids play well.

But hey, this is a bold prediction thread for fun! I think ADG and Wilson are going to be the next Willis-Bowman type combo!
I don't think we're going to be seeing a lot of Wilson and ADG this season. Maybe later in the year but not in the first half of the season. The good news for the LB crew is A.) There playing behind a really good D-Line and B.) It's a position that doesn't have to be great for a team to be successful. All they have to be is not complete poo and they will be an huge improvement over Brown and Vigil.
I foresee Shawn Williams playing LB a lot in Nickel this year.
