Here is a site to look at to look at who the free agents were, and who is available now: http://walterfootball.com/freeagents2012ILB.php
That said, Lets first look at who we have on our roster.
We have Quinten Groves, Aaron Curry, Travis Geothal, and Wheeler as candidates for starting MLB. Of course, i was thinking 3-4 here, so for the 4-3 base..... I don't think we have anyone behind McClain. The likely candidate would be Wheeler I guess...
Knowing that we have virtually no one there, we must look at some free agents to bring in. Here are my favorites:
DeAndre Levy: I don't know too much about Levy, but he played with Stephen Tollouch and on a defense that boasts a strong front seven. Our defense is built through our front seven as well, and he'll have better OLBs to play with as well. The highest rated available ILB on Walter football.
The next two highest rated free agents are EJ Henderson and James Farrior. Both bring a veteran presence, and solid play. WF says that both virtually have poor coverage ability, but they can both certainly have a resurgence career here, and are better then anyone we currently have.
Now the names with n descriptions..... I see one here that I would like.
Gary Brackett: Brackett was an above average Colts ILB. How is he now, I'm not sure, but at the time I was watching him he is fast, and instinctive. He was always around the tackle.
The only other one maybe could be Andra Davis. He used to be above average, but he is alright now.
Who do YOU guys like to bring in for our 4-3 ILB? Or an ILB in general. Anyone on the roster you are confident with to play the middle? What is our next step if McClain gets Jail time?
Poll
What would you do?
We should grab a veteran free agent. Farrior or Henderson would make good fill ins while providing solid leadership. (80 votes)
Get a younger LB in DeAndre Levy. Good talent, and has potential to be a good starting LB. (32 votes)
Lets just play one of our own guys. Surely someone would be more then capable to hold the fort. (25 votes)
Do everything. Please. Bring in one of the veterans and sign Levy. Surely this option is just way too obvious........ (41 votes)
