JMG5 Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 I wanted the Saints to draft him. I was actually disappointed a little on draft night when we missed out on him at the end of the 1st. Now I'm glad we dodged all of these issues and got a good RT instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a notch above WR and guard as a position. If they use their first on an ILB to replace Foster, Lynch isn't as smart as I thought he was. Have you seen our LB core?

I'd take a slightly lower-graded OT, QB, Pass rusher, corner, safety or defensive lineman in the top 10 before I'd take an ILB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of QB, DE and O/D Tackles, LB (regardless of pass rush or not) is an incredibly touted position to draft for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since 2000? 38 non-pass rushing linebackers have been drafted in round one. That's 6 percent. NFL teams must be dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show me numbers and the players, because that looks to me like an average of about 2 taken per year since 2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancerman Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 He'll be out of the league soon. At least not in San Fran anymore. There are some areas where you can pull a Jerry Jones/Greg Hardy. The Bay Area is not one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were so few results I had to add ILB, LB and OLB to the query. You're getting a few freebies, too, because players like Reddick should really be called dimebackers instead of linebackers. Bottom line, teams don't draft linebackers high anymore. It's a passing league, and inside linebackers are a luxury. They're coming off the field on most 2nd and 3rd downs, so they're literally losing a good third of their value. But I'm dumb according to you, so what do I know?
