I'm well aware of the state of our CB'a.

Our pass rush and overall talent at LB is more dire.

Ok. I have. Simon and Sheard on the outside. Morrison and Spence on the inside. With Mingo Ayres as backups on the outside and Jackson as a backup on the inside


Who do you have as corners???

Who do you have playing RG?

Man I hope this is true

Stephen Holder‏ @HolderStephen

Ballard was also very adamant that he will not be suckered into erring toward need in the draft. He said he's learned hard lessons abt that

That LB corps still is average at best.

It's still more stable than the CB corps

Yes, that's still a woefully undermanned LB corps. Combine that with LB being more essential to the defense in that it handles all phases and that's why it's ther more dire need.

The CB group isn't great shakes, I don't disagree, but the position itself and with Butler potentially able to compensate a bit, it's not as dire. There's no one bailing out our LB's. Fix that first.

I completely disagree
