[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 832290, member: 7261"] ILB may be going the way of the running back. Sure, there are some running backs who will get paid, but most of the league seems to see the position as interchangeable. It’s almost a mirror reflection on the field. Use a big, pounding back on first and second downs, and sub in a speedy receiving back on third down and passing situations. Use a big, pounding linebacker on first and second down. Sub in a specialist on third and passing downs. Problem for the Packers, they really don't have a proven speedy ILB right now. Also, while an offense can substitute their RB's in and out, knowing which one is suited for the play being called, the defense doesn't have that luxury. Come to think of it, the Packers don't really have the speedy receiving RB either. :cautious: [/QUOTE]
