Linebacker could be a sneaky need

There's nothing sneaky about it, it's a big need.
LVE may or may not be here and not for long either way. At this point in his career I'm not about to throw big time $ at Bobby so a 1 yr rental at best. Barr is most likely gone and wasn't much help anyway. I think Clark will probably take the step forward and be a good LB for us, but will Cox? With Micah transitioning to a primary pass rusher role we don't have much in the cupboard.
Even if Lve resigns, it's a position they need to start adding future starters.
 
Depending on who is still available, I think Sanders is a real option in round 1.
I like Sanders too, but he is very green still as an off the ball linebacker. No doubt can rush the passer, but we need a good run stopper.
 
This suggests they may use a top 100 pick at the position.
Not a big fan of Overshown…he’s a coverage LBr that can blitz. Slow to diagnose in the run game and struggles to get off blocks.

Daviyon is smaller but at least he’s more active against the run.
 
-Lve is coming off of a solid season, but few a few games with that neck issue. He is a fa that we hope to resign, depending on his price.
-Barr isn't expected to be resigned, his play was decent, but I think the coaches expected more out of him.
-Clark missed the entire offseason and he was very inconsistent on the field, so much he barely played in the postseason as the Coaches didn't trust him.
-Gifford is also a fa and is more of a special teams player, you would think last year's pick Devin Harper could replace his lost production on special teams.
-Many fans are high on Jabril Cox, but not the coaches. Believe they see him as a nickel LB/S that Kearse currently plays.

What happens if Lve departs and Bobby Wagner signs elsewhere? This need becomes #1 priority.
Are there any good linebackers worth a high draft pick. Sewell’s brother???
 
Looks like the Cowboys are looking into some LBs.

LVE isn't going anywhere. Wagner isn't coming here.

I believe in Cox and Clark more than most. Especially Clark.

LB is a minor need. If a good one is available in the 3rd or 4th I'm picking him.

Campbell is the one I like mist, outside rd 1

Have to get one signed
 
Daiyan Henley who they visited with out of WSU is very good against the pass.

Then we don't care about winning. LVE isn't going to lead any championship defense in the middle
