LB is one of the possible positions we target with our top 10 pick, and a trend emerging, particularly this year, is that young LBs are having tremendous success. DeMeco Ryans had a great year in 06, and now this year two rookies are 1st and 3rd in tackles (Willis and Beason). Ernie Sims, DJ Williams, Ryans (again), the Jets' Harris, Morrison, and many others had great years.
I remember reading quite a few times that LBs can take some time to develop which is why we wouldn't take one in the first the last few years... as well as the fact that we have such a complex defense. But nevertheless... young LBs are getting it done.
