Barron, MO....even TJ are all near the 220lbs range...
but can run and hit and have good LB instincts near the LoS. imo
And...since they will NOT be taking on OC/OGs in the new 3-4 as opposed to other traditional 3-4 versions...
I have greater hope for their success in this new defense. We have a bunch of young DBs along with Joyner who might finally be deemed a good fit at FS...and let MoWilliams move up to LB or replace TJ's loss due to FA.
WPhillips is a smart guy on defense...and aggressive(like GW)!! In fact, WPhillips would've been my only happy choice to fill GW's shoes...but thot Phillips was still under contract in Denver. The best thing about Phillips is that he lets SMcV focus on the offense and call those play while letting the DC and STs handle that part of the team.
