Linebacker Depth

The staff allegedly likes Wilson. I like Lemon although he's mostly a 2 down Sam.

I believe Lemon is still a restricted free agent that we have not yet offered a contract to.

Dont expect him to make 53 anyway

Wilson is a full time DE now I think. The other two are probably cut.

Thanks. I was thinking Wilson was the OLB/DE type but I don't really know the player. Again I like Lemon but he is athletically limited a tad. I still think he could play two downs esp as the Sam. That's just not what coaches are looking for anymore. They want a do everything LBer. Just not so easy to find guys big enough to take on Gs at the second level, shed them and make the tackle and still cover TEs, RBs and even WRs all over the field. It's almost an impossible task for LBers these days.
