Trevin Wallace - One Final Shot...or is Cherelus someone to watch?

[Bear Hands]

We did not come away with one of the offball talents in this class so it seems Trevin is now given Year 3 to show what's up.

We spent the 72nd pick overall on him two years back...he had some moments as a rookie, fumbled the bag last year.  Looked pretty lost at times (some would say many times).  Once he was shelved with an injury, Cherelus didn't look half bad.  He started the final 4 and the Rams playoff game.

Do we see a late FA signing? Or do you think this staff is putting their eggs in his basket for one more season? (Would be nice if a reporter would ask them a question about this).  Or does Cherelus actually have the path to be paired as our starter with Lloyd? 

I get it that we were moving with the board and got who we valued.  Just hope it pays off, there were some talented dudes at ILB in this class.

I was really hoping we'd get a new starting ILB in the draft, but it didn't fall that way. No doubt having Devin Lloyd will help a ton, but I don't have much faith in Trevin Wallace at this point.

Both are safe this season. Dan loves them both and both contributed heavily on special teams. Unless someone beats them out in practice they are secure.

I’ll toss this out again-Wallace charts pretty well actually dropping into coverage. Rotating him in situationally and signing Bobby Wagner to come in and play early downs is a nice little boon to the defense.

They can probably get by with what they have, but with the developmental nature of the draft, boosting the team in the immediate is a good idea.

Trevin's biggest issue is lacking instincts and not being able to process the offense quickly enough and is always a step or two behind especially in the run game

The only hope for whichever loser gets the job is if Lloyd directs traffic and tells them where to be

Had a feeling Dan would give his guy another season and not draft a LB.
