Looking at Walker, Leonard and Okereke as the starting LBs in a 4-3 base, and it sure looks like one of the best position groups on the roster (the depth ain't bad either).
It sure is the best LB corps since at least the 2006 playoff run (Brackett, June, and Morris replacing Gardner at SAM, which was a move that should have been made 2 years sooner!!) and honestly might even be better. Add in Thornton from the 2005 season and we had some good backers back then but each of the 3 current guys just seem bigger and faster, more dynamic and productive, especially in forcing turnovers.
