I give on him, maybe he'll go to the Giants and have big games against us. He's just not cutting it, please give your thoughts
Bye to Cox

Yeah, I have seen nothing from him. But we don't really have anyone else. Could we actually only keep 3 true LB's and maybe Land as a 4th even though he is more of a pass rusher? Or just go with 3 and look for someone on the waiver wire? I mean, we keep LVE and Clark, most likely Harper but I am not sure we have another LB worth keeping.

You’re going to need at least 1 more body in there.
Parsons = moves around.
LVE, Clark = starters
Harper = depth/special teams
Land is a little light at the moment to be a full time LB. Love the upside

People talked him up as a coverage LB in college. My question is was he a legitimately good coverage LB, or did he create some TO's that he wasnt going to he able to in thw NFL

Maybe they go for another trade or free agent there. I don't know. But I do know it isn't going to be Cox.

They likely bring in a player released or roll with Malik Jefferson

Glad they’re going to keep Harper instead of Cox. I’ve liked Harper since they got him… and I haven’t liked Jabril since they drafted him.

It appears the ACL injury Cox suffered midway into his rookie season stunted his progress (phyiscally and/or mentally) to remain on the team.

Maybe so…but I didn’t like him coming out of that draft. Good in coverage but he wasn’t physical, didn’t seem to be instinctive for the position, and was sub par against the run. People (and draft sites) were talking about him as a 2nd round pick, which I thought was kind of crazy. When Dallas drafted him in the 4th, I thought that I could live with getting him that late… but I still didn’t like his game.
My point in all that is that I didn’t really like him as a prospect or a player, long before he tore his ACL. I’m sure messing up that knee (and as you mentioned, him having to mentally recover too) didn’t help matters, for sure.
I just like Harper much more as a player. He’s athletic but plays a more physical brand of football. He appears to enjoy the contact more than Jabril.
Just my take on it.
