Do we have the best o-line, corners and linebacking groups in all of football?

One could argue.
Obviously our oline is top 3 with a chance to regain that number one spot with Frederick and we have depth.
I wouldn't swap our corners for anyone. Jones and Chido starting and Brown and Lewis could both start for more than half the league. Brown is super underrated!
Linebackers would be extremely tuff to find a better starting 3 with LVE, Smith and Lee.
Thoughts?

If healthy, they look top 5 on paper.

But neither group is ever 100% between Sean Lee and Tyron (and now Fred last year).

I think the better question is. Do we have the highest number of postion groups that are considered type 5 in the league.

OL is top 5 with all the 1st round picks playing healthy. They havent all been healthy in a long time but I'm guessing they'll start the season that way, Martin absence seems precautionary (correct me if I'm wrong).

The CBs aren't there yet. I think they might be a top 10 unit but they must start getting interceptions. Jones looked real good for a lot of last year and Awuzie looks like he could surpass Jones as early as 2019, but intercept the damn ball.

LBs are a top 3 unit. They're in the conversation of the best but it takes A LOT to be absolutely, hands down, the best LB group.

..lets just say we are up there with the best. Or top 10 for that matter. In the end, we just want to win and bring it home.

False.

Best LBs but not sure the best OL or CBs.

On the OL, Frederick has to show he’s back and Williams has to be much better to make that claim.

I agree with this but I think Chicago has a better LB group.

Yeah, but you're probably including Mack. If so then I'd agree. But even though Mack wears a linebackers number he's essentially a DE. I don't recall ever seeing him do anything linebacker related other than rush the QB from the edge. But even still, Chicago measures up as good or better regardless.
