Rams LB position needs an overhaul:
Upgrade yes but overhaul is a click bait point of view.
We all know their LB corpse was barely average if not worse.
The Rams still notched the #1 overall ranked defense even with their less than desirable linebackers.
When your weakest position group doesn't prevent the defense from earning the #1 ranking, the overhaul word is a bit drastic and not the reason the Rams didn't advance past the divisional round.
The weakest link (position group) on #1 ranked defense will always be magnified the following offseason.
There is merit to pointing out the obvious 2020 LB woes but unless the Rams have an opportunity to draft or sign super stud game changing LB, I don't see much of an upgrade priority at this position.
