There is also one SIGNIFICANT tea leave to read. BB/SP have NOT signed any depth LBs. Is that a sign that they expect to invest in LBs in this draft? What is different about this draft? It has 4 to 6, 3-4 ILB candidates, and but 1 or 2 of the 3-4 DE/OLBs conversion candidates.
We have an old guy and a younger vet, both have been injured; both have been mentioned for the pro bowl before their injuries; behind them we have ZERO, three UDFA ST type scrubs...
Yup... I'd draft to fill that position we have Tedy Bruschi who is old and often injured. The other guy is younger Mike Vrabel 31, but has been injured with a bad back. The depth is nonexistent consisting of undrafted scrubs/ST types.
What's the point? Everyone knows they need LB's, that is not being debated here. NE has 10 picks, and could surely take some good LB's, Safeties, and CB's with those picks, along with players at other positions. Also, AD plays both ILB, and OLB so he does add some depth to the LB corp. They still need Backers, though.
