Not only will Hightower start but I could see him as a potential candidate for ROTY...he seems very intense in a non meaningful practice,I could just imagine his tenacity in a REAL game.
We have gone from a very weak LB corps just 4 years ago to what I could see as being one of the best corps in the league very soon.
I agree with DROY.
1st round Linebackers get DROY more often than not... so history says it will be between Hightower and Luke Kuechly.
Chandler Jones will likely be brought along slowly and will be a work in progress,there is some good depth on the team so no sense rushing him...I would be shocked if he were a major factor on defense this year.
He's already taking some reps with the 1st team defense. I don't see any reason why he wouldn't be a major factor on defense this year.
