I really think they're going to put Bradley at the Sam, give Chaney the Mike job, and try Clayton at the Wil.

i really hope you are wrong...bradley gets abused when he tries to cover from the mike spot...him on the outside in even more open space would garner hindenburg type results

chaney seems game but jesus he was a 7th round pick for a reason

and "try" is the perfect word with clayton...because thats all they ever do at lb and what theyd be doing with him...just tossing him out there and hoping he does well

in conclusion if those three in those spots are their linebackers next year i might turn in my season tickets

[Diomedes]

Bradley's idea of pass coverage is to keep his shoulders square to the quarterback and his eyes squarely on the receiver's back as he chases him down the field.

[Rome]

They're not going to * waste * a high pick on an LB and they won't spend money on one in FA.  In short were farged.

[reese125]

the only plus bradley as the SAM would be is his ability to shed off some pulling guards and the fb on the run. that would at least keep that side of the ball contained.

biggest flaw is he gets smoked by witten, boss and cooley on the regular. cheney can cover to an extent, but he gets beat up on the inside and cant shed blocks, so youre damned either way.

maybe get some interior push and an end/s that can hold up a whole season, you might be able to make those mediocre LBs look like football players.

[Rome]

He's white.

[QB Eagles]

someone post a list of all the LB's on this team since 2000.   im sure some hilarious names will pop up.

Stewart Bradley, Omar Gaither, Joe Mays, Chris Gocong, Akeem Jordan, Jeremiah Trotter, Will Witherspoon, Jamar Chaney

Oh wait, that's just the the guys who have started at a single linebacker position in two seasons under McDermott.

[Eagaholic]

funny thing Sims averaged around 125 tackles a year before his last year in Det when he was injured. The coaching and system btw are surperb.

[reese125]

he played for detroit my man. thats what happens when your on the defensive 50 minutes out of the 60 played.

[Eagaholic]

True, but there's a lot of linebackers on a lot of bad teams that won't come anywhere near that. In fact very few will.

Is Simms that bad or is the coaching and system just bad.  just about every LB to come through here in the last 10 years has sucked.  the % of bad line backing is off the charts for this team.  someone post a list of all the LB's on this team since 2000.   im sure some hilarious names will pop up.

[Don Ho]

All they need to do is ad Fujita to that list and we got the United Nations roll call.

I'm sure there's a few missing.

What's the ruling on ND Kalu?  Didn't he play DE and LB?
