DO WE HAVE THE BEST LINEBACKING CORPS?

i was reading a post earlier, and it got me to thinking, do we have the best linebacking corps in the NFL?, lets look at the roster shall we.

1.we have 1 legend hall of famer, maybe the best LB to ever play the game

2). 3 pro bowlers,( who else can say all 3 of their linebackers are pro bowlers?) Even though scott or suggs wont be here very long, they are still great. and i hope they sign scott, cause he's a great guy, and he actully wants to be here. he is only 26, so he isn't that much older than suggs.

3. We have a 245 pound guy who runs a 4.4(antwan barnes), has looked like a younger, faster, version of T-sizzle, and he also has improved tremendously on his pass coverage, something we all know was never T-sizzle’s stong point(might be better, at pass coverage than suggs)

4.maybe the best cover linebacker coming out of college, and the linebacker with the most upside(tavares godden), if unfortunately we dont sign scott this is our man

5. and jerret johnson, who we has spent so much time on the team, waitiing for his turn, who is 5 years younger than Ayanbadejo, and who they spent all that money on, and who has looked just amaizing in camp, and preseason so far.

thats only a few guys. we still have Ayanbadejo, and a McClen who has looked good in camp.

yes its safe to say..WE DO HAVE THE...BEST LINEBACKING CORPS IN THE NFL!!! HANDS DOWN

we have speed, size, strength, and we have a legend, maybe the best linebacker to ever play the game, who else can say that? we need to sit back and watch, cause O.C, (organized chaos), is gonna do some damage..its gonna be a sight to watch. but we have to thank or D-line, because they are the reason why they can run around, and do what ever they want. thats a whole diffrent post

The opinions posted here are those of the administrator of this blog and his loyal readers. They are in no way official comments from the team, and should not be misconstued as such, even though he thinks he could do just as well or even a better job!

Jarrett Johnson...

..is underrated, as he’s always less of a threat than either Lewis or Scott. Barnes is more of a rush end, but Tavares Gooden, Nick Greisen and Ayanbadejo are waiting for a chance to take over if he doesn’t cut it.
