[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 878363, member: 10086"] I’m not saying we’re a top 10 LB grouping or bragging them up, but there’s no question that we will see Pettine make some modifications in scheme after being humiliated on prime time, his job depends on it. I’m not as eager to write Burks off just yet. This is Oren’s 3rd camp and in his 1st two seasons he started the season with significant set back injuries. If he can stay healthy for once, it’s his job to lose behind Kirksey. Don’t make the mistake like some of thinking Burks won’t fight for his job, he’s shown to be an aggressive on ST and wasn’t afraid to give Campbell etc.. a run for their money as a leading tackler not once, but twice consecutively. IDK about you but when fixing the Run, id prefer an athletic 6’3 233lb. ILB verses Raven Greene’s 5’11” 197lb Self. Kirksey is a stud ILB in pass protection and one of the more versatile LB’s in the league and he doesn’t need Safety help covering TE’s etc.. It makes perfect sense to me why they drafted another versatile LB in Martin but leaning Run Thumper for depth. Mike Pettine knows better than most what he’s got with Kirksey and he deems him as a great fit, he’s our DC so I trust he knows better than us what he’s trying to accomplish. With that said, we may convict Pettine and toss him at the end of 2020, but it’s logical to trust him to Win games in the meantime. If they think they are that bad at LB behind Kirksey they’ll make an alternative move. If not, Mike is comfortable with what he sees in the current group. [/QUOTE]
