The guy will never be a real off ball inside backer. Undersized 3-4 edge who sometimes rushes from the middle of the defense. Tenacious player, probably going to be a solid pass rusher who gives up some in the run game. I like him, but it’s what he is.

Realistically he's a 4-3 OLB, but I think in a 3-4, he's better off as an ILB who can then shift to OLB in some pass rush situations.

Even had we known them I still suspect T-Mac would've been the lick given Walker's own lingering injury issue.

Maybe, and I'd still have been pushing for T-Mac, but I was very loud about being anti Walker because I hated the fit of him as an OLB in a 3-4 with his size.  

Had the discussion been about him being a 3-4 ILB who pass rushes situationally (and realistically, a future OLB when we move back to a 4-3 at some point), I'd have been much more on board with that option.

Aside from maybe the Vikings QB room, this is perhaps the worst position group on any team in the NFL.

The Saints say "Hi!"

I also wouldn't be too confident throwing shade after Bryce finally had a few decent games. I mean, good grief. LOL

It's a sad sign when there's some panic over losing josey jewell

[Doc LRB]

To sad that injury short cut his career.  Watched a few games from last of season and he was all over the place.  Don't tell him he was under sized.

Little more insight into why!

Not a fan but that is a harsh situation. I hope he stays away and enjoys his next chapter in life.

We was our best LB last season, so that’s saying something

If our season hinged upon Josey Jewell, then we were screwed from the get-go. Relax, people.

Why would Shaq come back here when he's playing for the Bills? 

Because once a Panther always a Panther...

Football aside, just praying for the man's health and recovery. A new page in life for him, I hope it all turns out well along the way.
