Impressed with the LB's

[Actionman0z]

LB has a ton of depth. A lot of them look really good. I like this crop.

I really liked Demario Davis, Ronell Lewis (ran with the DL, but would be an amzing weakside LB and could play a joker type role for us, Luke K was obviously good, Dont'a Hightower looked amazing for 265, and I really liked that kid from Cal who ran the 4.41, he was pac-12 player of the year. Those guys all impressed, sorry, there were plenty more.

What that's it? Not even one name of who you're interested in or who caught your eye? =/

I would love to get 2 LB out of this draft. OLB and a MLB in later rounds.

I thought NCSU's Terrell Manning had a solid Combine. I think he solidified himself as a solid mid-round prospect. I'd be looking at him come the 4th/5th if he's still on the board.

Demario Davis, based on the Youtube I saw of him before the combine and bolstered by a solid combine performance.

He looked really small in his lower body, I do not think that translates well at the next level but he ran well, looked athletic, at worst, special teamer.

Ronell Lewis & Keenan Robinson would be great depth, very strong ST additions, and can also become eventual starters in the near future imo. Izalikedostwo

Throwing a hypothetical at you that will cause some meltdowns:

First, consider this:

1. RR is a former LB, and DC who likes LBs a lot.

2. We might take BPA at a position of need.

3. Nobody questions Beason's ability to return from an achilles injury and return to his pro bowl level. That is expecting a lot.

4. We are losing Dan Connor.

5. Luke Keuchley, MLB, Boston College showed that he runs in the 4.5s and has the speed and agility to cover on 3rd downs.

6. LK averaged 15 tackles per game in college.

7. LK could have improved his stock at the combine by becoming a top 12 prospect. He is a leader and a field general--much like Beason.

Now ask these questions:

1. Will TD be able to play at a high level? Will Beason? Are you sure?

2. Can Keuchley play either strong or weakside LB? Can Beason?

So, if the panthers are fearful of the injury concerns at LB and the head coach lives and breathes LBs and defense, why is nobody suggesting the best LB in the draft?

I'd be happy with him, if he is going to start from day one for us. So we need to have a plan. #9 he needs to be a starter.
