Those are the public ones, how many others in private?

That's a good point.... probably several.

It's obvious that our linebackers aren't fast enough for the modern NFL.

The question I have is this: Would one fast, sure tackling linebacker paired with Brown/Vigil fix everything, or do we need to gut the whole position group? Part of me thinks that you can have one slowish backer in a group with a more athletic player to clean up. Maybe not. I don't think Vigil or Brown are totally useless, I just think having two guys like that on the field all the time is a setup for failure.

In today's NFL there going to find your weakness and Exploit it no matter what. So I would say no you have to have Athleticism at the LB position.

Then the question is - why did this team knowingly sign/keep LB's that dont fit the modern NFL? Clearly Buffalo let Brown go due to his limitations, but we could have 2 fast guys off the street do just as 'well' as these two lumps of crap

Yikes. Knew about Dillon and Carson. Didn’t know of the rest? No wonder Boomer struggles to give us props?

And...IF you're only going to play 2, you ABSOLUTELY need athleticism.

I can't think of a great Defense in the modern era of Football that hasn't had  at least two notable LBers. Infact all the teams that play our style of Defense ( single High safety under look) have featured great LB.
