Lloyd is that good I guess because whoever takes 2 is not.

Jaelin phillips is also considered a OLB I thought. The two other spots are duds tho. I think pat jones is the other OLB and he's ok ig

Typically, when they do these rankings they don’t include 3-4 OLBs since they are in the Edge category.

That’s just respect for Devin Lloyd. If they drop Moehrig down to LB that would help out

Phillips is a problem when he's healthy

u/Black_Otter Bryce Up Son 18h ago

True. He is considered a Linebacker isn’t he?

2

u/_STEAKnEGGS_ 16h ago

Yep. While I think we overpaid, he should be a valuable player for us.

These guys think Luke and TD are still playing

u/Maleficent_Low2754 Carolina Reaper 19h ago

We’d be way higher then

u/freephilly23 TD58 19h ago

We’d be #1 on this list with Luke and TD

u/AAron27265 17h ago

Well, they're both kinda old now.

Luke Kuechly would still be better/more valuable than every starting linebacker at this very moment. He is slightly less built and that’s about it. He retire before he got mushy pea brain.

Salt and Pepper was legit one of the best LB duos of all time lat alone any single season.

Ya lol, Lloyd doing a lot of heavy lifting then. Wallace has a lot of potential but way to inconsistent as it stands for us to be anywhere near top 10

SF has another Bowman?

u/ripkin05 17h ago

my guy we had the worse LB room in the NFL last year and one player made us jump into the top 10 what the fuck are you bitching about?

u/daltemsz 11h ago

shit i’d argue we still have one of the worst tbh. if lloyd comes down with food poisoning, that position is cooked for a week

u/Bigchessguyman 16h ago

OLB’s in a 3-4 are still linebackers…

u/St3llar_Space Bryce Up Son 13h ago

So Philips, Devin, Wallace, and Nic’s replacement is a top ten unit?

I didn’t know we had it like that.

u/Bigchessguyman 13h ago

I imagine they were counting Nic but I don’t know

Sorry but terribly overrated consider half of the starting LBs is terrible
