Doesn't make sense to me. We need help on run defense and someone who can shed blocks and tackle, not a pass-rushing specialist. We need the Zach Brown/Gerald Hodges type of LB.
Anthony Barr is supposed to be our pass-rushing LB specialist and we have a great 3-man rotation at DE in Griffin, Hunter & Robison - all specialize in QB pressures.
I don't understand the interest...

Very odd visit w/ more pressing needs on the docket prior to the 2017 Draft - RB, WR, slot CB, DL and/or run-stuffing LB, outside CB depth behind Waynes/Rhodes, etc |

IMO Barr has regressed. Agree on the holes they've failed to address you've pointed out. The loss of Cap being the most concerning to me. Mac is not ready! |
