Should we being looking harder for a middle lb?
If Shaq departs, that leaves us with Jennings. Am I missing someone else?
Solomon is 200lbs, Huff and Brooks are listed in the 190s. They’re all olbs, right?

I believe Diaz style defenses don't have prototypical middle linebackers.

They will have 2 fast twitchy and aggressive backers with a striker.
Correct me if I'm wrong

Joe Jackson is the only one that I’m worried about leaving. Everyone else should stay.

I don’t like ripping on the kids but Shaq isn’t good enough for this new nfl. I mean he has issues in space / conversed at this level. He’s not twitchy , average speed but he’s super smart.

Oh and Jj is gone

He stays another year he probably goes day 2 with a good year and a good combine. If not day 2 then early day 3.

Combine might be what hurts him lol, unless he stays away from that 40 lol. Grab his hammy in a drill before the 40’s.

I disagree. While most of the NFL likes the twitchy linebackers there are some NFL teams that value that true MLB thumper. He could go round 2-3 easily IMO. I however dont really think we use a true MLB and will be fine. You can tell by the guys we are recruiting that we prefer that fast twitchy linebacker

Missing on Rosendo Louis will bite us. Mike Linebacker we should recruit Nationwide for

IMO if Shaq leaves McCloud will start at MLB next year.

Personally, that's where I'd start out Huff
