Is it safe to say we will never address the ILB position?

I don’t see what the harm would be moving Josh Jones to ILB and let him compete. He could easily put on 15lbs and still be the quickest LB on the field. So he crashes and Burns.. so what? He may not make the cut as it is

While I dislike lack of investments here

It's safe to say the ILB in this scheme just gets things "funneled" to him. So we just need a sure tackler who can cover some. Like Blake.

The DL and EDGE/OLBers should pretty much free up all the blockers and create enough pressure where the ILB just needs to be a guy who can make the tackler and make plays here and there

There's absolutely no doubt a defense benefits from having a playmaker at inside linebacker, no matter the scheme.

Burks is all but guaranteed to make the roster with the Packers completely lacking any quality depth at inside linebacker.
