Our nickel defense is completely different now. Marshall and Burfict, awesome. 

How’s base gonna look? SLB Marshall, MLB Burfict, WLB Whitehead?

Is Marshall more of an inside guy, or did he play outside with DEN? I know Burfict is versatile and can play both in and out.

Burfict can play MLB and WLB. If he ays WLB and Marshall plays MLB, who plays SLB? Whitehead would be terrible in that role.

I would pencil in Marshall and Whitehead but I'm rightfully withholding Trashcan til we see anything in in OTAs/Preseason. Plus we still have the draft where we can upgrade at LB.

Marshall has played only inside, but that was in a 34 so might be able to play outside. Either way the Raiders have vastly improved their LB core. 

Pretty sure his skillset can play 4-3 SLB. We’ll see what happens. Regardless, our LB corps looks way better.
