Our ILB spot has been a weakness for our defense since Littleton...but we've not had a MLB talent like Wagz since LondonFletcher. Our defense has been gashed from the run and short middle passes for YEARS. Having Wagner will be huge in stopping the inside run while being very good against the pass. No more will we see RBs slashing up the middle or RBs catching flair routes against our heavy footed ILBs of the past few years. Filling this ILB issue ids HUGE and subtle but will really make the difference in games. imo
If we could sign a good DB(HBadger or Gilmore) with the money we have left - will make us very strong on ALL 3 levels of our defense. It would have been re-signing
just Miller or getting 2 more quality players in BWagz and another guy(Badger? Gilmore?). I might like getting the two instead of just Miller as I think the only way our team has been beaten is teams running up the middle and thort passes across the middle. Now, we have a freakin stud MLB in the middle that will end all that. I am happy and I don't even know who the 2nd FA hire is yet.
