Trying to get the inside scoop on Evero's defense. It's certainly not for his services because he's a career backup at best.

cover 3 zone with DB's 15-20 yards off, double team #95, attack #21

I hate to lose his productivity. I know he whiffed on a lot, but he had 122 tackles last year. Leading tackler on the team.

Did they sign him to help teach Baker how to slide? Cause sliding on the ground is how Roseboom ended every play

Don't think it hurts that much. IMO, not much of a dropoff from somebody like Gipson compared to Rozeboom.

Regardless, I still think we are looking at an ILB in the first 3 rounds. There are quite a few interesting prospects between Rodriguez, Golday, and Hill Jr. that would be good 2nd round picks if they make it to us (Rodriguez might be a stretch since it seems like teams are falling in love with him). Kyle Louis and Lawson are worth a look also in the 3rd

Upgrade him by a country mile by drafting Rodriguez

If you want Rodriguez you gonna have to take him in the first round and i honestly wouldn't be entirely against it. Especially in a trade down scenario.

I'm one of those who are falling for Rodriguez. If he's there at 51 I hope the hell we snatch him up.

He definitely has a lot of traits you would like to see out of a LB. Love his sideline to sideline movement and has the ability to be a great coverage LB if developed correctly. Still worried that he will get bullied in the run game though.

Them signing Robinson, did not like. Dude can play and is a run stuffer. Rozeboom? Cool name, backup player.

There’s a lot of good linebacker prospects this year. I think Rodriguez will be a good player but they can also be patient and still get a good one. I like the idea of trading down in the first but I think they are set on Sadiq and if he’s not there then they might trade down

He was decent!! Our Offense will have to watch out for him when we play them

It's his brain that really helps the most. High football IQ and can decipher plays well. Get smart players, it helps every single time. 

Getting bullied a couple of times will happen as he gets into the league, but he'll figure it out. And there's a weight room and professional nutritionists to help add some muscle mass. And guys like Luke and TD are around to show him how to make bullies cry.

Normally, I wish a guy who goes on to somewhere else luck. And I like Rosenboom. He did very well for us and was a great team guy. I wish him great off field success. On the field...  if he could struggle versus us for those two games a season, I'd be happy with that.

Even Luke wasn't the best at beating blocks from interior olinemen. His super power was getting to the point before the block got to him.
