....it remains to be seen if he can repeat and improve on last year’s great performance, but I think that he will as long as he can stay healthy.
None of the other guys mentioned in these lists below can hold a candle to Jaylon Smith or JOK physically. I know that playing LB is more than raw physical gifts, but those gifts do give an advantage as Jaylon already proved (by the way, who is the only LB on people”s lists in this thread who has been named All Pro in the NFL?
Jaylon Smith......AFTER a career ending knee injury with nerve damage). Nick Buonacotti was the only other pro bowler, but nobody listed him though maybe they should have.
Shame on anyone who claims Smith is t the best LB ND has ever had. The other LB’s listed would all acknowledge it as well.
