If these LB were projected future starters, everyone would agree. But then, if that were so, they would have been Day One draft picks.
We haven't seen what in a VERY long time? Young binkie UDFA's? Where do you think Woods and Alexander came from? And all the rest that have made the various squads? As I recall Mays was going to be a starter by now. I agree that we haven't seen two top young LB prospects on the patriots for a very long time, and this year we have them: Mayo and Crable. It is NOT Redd and Guyton who are any different that any other year. No one is going to keep them from our Practice Squad.
what we havnt seen in a VERY long time is exactly what u said..." agree that we haven't seen two top young LB prospects on the patriots for a very long time"
so we have crable and mayo...we play a 3-4, we need 4 LB STARTERS...why should we keep only 2, when we have a chance to get 3, or even 4?
who knows how long until we see a rookie with this much promise in camp and preseason? 3, 4, 5 years?
i say make the best of it now, even if it requires to slightly weaken special teams
