After take Rivers and Maualuga and neither one becoming a star, Marvin seems to take a chance on finding diamonds in the rough. Burfict is the only guy who we "coached up" but the guy already had 1st round talent. We just had to fix what is between his ears. We just seem content with mediocre LBs.
LBs who leave here tend to not do much on their new teams for a few years. Landon Johnson played 3 more seasons after he left here and his tackle totals never matched his worst season here. Skuta went to SF and basically started off as just a ST before developing into a good rotational player for them. I can only imagine what will happen to Lamur if he moves on after this season.
Speaking of Dan Skuta. Who saw that coming? In his last 16 games played he has 6.5 sacks and 3 FF.
Not sure if it's coaching, scheme, or what, but glad to see him succeed even if it wasn't with the Bengals.
