I'm really hope you've just been trolling this whole time. We need to bolster LB, because we DO know about our two starters. Do you really think Thomas Davis will play the entire season? How many games did he play last year with just two ACL injuries...two games...

no, but that's not going to force me to just throw a top ten pick at yet another linebacker and not look back

Maybe its just me, but I don't like those odds. Beason is somewhat less of a concern, but history shows that screwing up your Achilles is one of the bigger injuries a player can have.

and ligament surgery has become a lot more advanced since then. so instead of simply replacing him like you want to do lets focus on helping solidify the interior he plays behind so he can have a clearer path to the ball carrier

And you contradicted yourself concerning the DT position, because we DID have a legitimate starter in Ron Edwards who suffered a lesser injury than Beason or Davis. Not only that, but we've invested two 3rd round picks in players that were thrown into the fire last year, at a position that is notorious for players to take a while to develop at the professional level.

Ron Edwards is not a legitimate starter on this team. He's just a guy that started in Kansas City briefly that we signed who came in and tore his arm barely a week into training camp. He's also on the wrong side of 30.

Please gtfo, you're just embarrassing yourself.

go play with your balls

Again, I do not think its the best pick for us. I do not think that any DT will come in and be successful, I want Coples, but I think that he or Decastro is the safest pick. And to say hes not worth the #9 spot because he has never rushed the passer is moronic.

You and Cra never admit you're wrong either. Like I said people had ? about Kuechly speed and athleticism before the Combine. Zac Brown was consider the best LB before the Combine.

Until they watched more tape of Brown and saw that he ran around and away from contact. He is fast, but plays very soft.

Completely ignorant and ill informed post about Edwards. He is regarded as a very good. NT and was a highly sought after DT when we signed him.

yes he was so in demand it cost us less than a fourth of what the top FA DT commanded

Edwards is solid. Didnt fit the KC scheme and is aging.....so the price tag wasn't much. You don't have to be in great demand to be solid
