At this point, we are looking somebody to fill in that Bond/Gifford role. We know Bond is out for the season and Gifford has been known to miss a few games.
Harper will likely make it, but stick to special teams. Jefferson is a guy who could find some snaps on defense and special teams.
Well, we really only play Gifford when a game is out of reach, so I don't think the fourth or fifth linebacker is going to see much playing time unless there's an injury.
Generally, we'll have Parsons and Cox or Parsons and LVE out there, with Kearse also playing linebacker in certain sets. I think Gifford sticks as that backup who we know isn't a total liability if he has to play. I agree that Harper is likely just special teams. However, those fourth and fifth spots definitely aren't set.
