Who Dat?

I don't like Vilma not playing but.....

if there is a positive, I guess it would be we finally get to see if one of our younger (possibly more athletic) players can hold down the MLB spot in his absence.

This gave me a thought.

Martez Wilson was a MLB who was going to make a transition to OLB. Maybe he can get in some snaps and see how he does?

I want to see somebody…..anybody….give vilma just a little competition at MLB. I think Wilson could possibly provide that if given the chance. It is a lot easier to judge talent in a game than the practice field.

I agree completely

I like Vilma’s leadership position on the team, but he gets beat often. Idk if one of the backups are any better, but it’s time to find out. We really need someone at LB that is more athletic. It’s our weakest position on the team by far.

We need to have T. Porter go ahead and give Skynet a call.....

so he can place an order for some cybernetic appendages. These injuries are starting to become a problem.
