[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 905865, member: 12283"] Defending the Packers approach and the lack of value they place in off-ball linebackers is one thing. I think it's a lower value position, myself. But that's a debate. But treating edge pass rushers (like Watt, Dupree, McPhee, Judon, etc) as belonging in the same basic category of "linebacker" with off-ball players such as Queen, Harrison, Bush, and so forth is something else. I mean, just consider-- your point is that the Packers undervalue the "linebacker" position in your opinion. But if you include edge guys in that conversation, it undercuts your whole point. Because they clearly DON'T undervalue the edge guys-- having shelled out big money for the Smith's and drafted Gary. So what I would say is that the opinion that the Packers should value off-ball linebackers is fine. But the evidence to support that opinion should be about actual off-ball linebackers, and not edge pass rushers. [/QUOTE]
