Possible need at ILB


Recommended Posts

I never really thought of this as a need but the media actually grabbed my attention for once and are saying and ILB Named Chris Borland from Wisconsin would be a good pick! He seems interesting and like actually a really good player! Would be a good back up behind Freeman and Jackson... Paired with Mcnary we could have some good ILB's

I will be the first to answer your question.

Absolutely, Borland would be a Great pickup. We want to be able to stop the run and this guy is a football player made just for that.

If he looks like a Bear and smells like a Bear.....he's gotta be........a

I think they need a safety worse than we do, and I think they think that also.

I agree.  I just feel Borland has the Bear middle linebacker mentality.  I hope they do not take OUR safety....or whomever Grigs is thinking...:)

    • Before the draft I had said multiple times I was happy with the offense. Then they were able to land AD in the 2nd and picked up two very good OL prospects. I think the offense is set for the next 3 years and can really do some damage.    The defense is what has concerned me. The three keys I believe are necessary for winning consistently in the NFL are:   Protect your QB - check Get after the other QB - 75% there  Take the ball away and give it back to your QB - middle of the pack.    Will this defense take the next step?  We all know about the young secondary. I kind of agree with the team philosophy of letting the younger players keep playing and see who emerges. Going to be keeping an eye on Cross, Scott and Flowers all season long. I believe this is a pretty big gamble by the team but hopefully 1-2 of them will rise to the occasion and prove to be a starter. Who in the secondary is going to start creating turnovers?     The DL will have a great rotation. If Latu is really the best pass rusher from the draft, this may be one of the deepest lines in the league. I love the DT position and the edge players have a lot of pieces for situational football. The addition of this DL coach looks to be exactly what this team needed to make the next step.    I understand the team still may add someone. Not sure who so not going to speculate much on available FAs. Mainly would like to steer this conversation towards who on this roster is capable of making a difference.  Anyways, interested to hear people’s opinions on who we have and if they can make the next step. 
    • Shane Steichen/Anthony Richardson/Jonathan Taylor Michael Pittman Jr/AD Mitchell/Alec Pierce/Josh Downs/Anthony Gould Jelani Woods/Will Mallory/Alex Ogletree/Kylen Gransen A top-five offensive line with all five starters returning with the best depth across the board in a very long time.  
    • You can absolutely argue this from a roster spot point of view, and from a kicking the tyres on someone else point of view. But a think having Ehlinger around, who knows the system now, and has experience with this team and players as the 3rd QB has value as well. Helps with the the entire practice squad player's development. So his value is more as a supporting piece rather than as an individual player.  But I get the argument for the extra roster spot for someone else to try out too.
    • i dont care what any football player or kicker says or his beliefs are. i only care about him missing his field goals against the colts. i certainly dont care what is said on social media
    • The way to beat any good QB is to rush the passer.Hoping Latu can make a big impact as a rookie.
