Lol it’s such a crapshoot. If I went back on this forum on the day Jack got signed I’m sure most were excited.Myles Jack was let go by Jacksonville after the 2021 season for a reason. He wasn’t any good any longer. We will
Not miss Myles Jack. Good savings!
Another one and done, crazy.At some point you have to look at the shear number of ilbs that failed here and conclude that it may be Systemic issues rather than player failure
Timmons and Shazier were physical freaks… and Vince williams was just a solid starter… but ever since they tweaked the DL to get more pressure and asked the ilbs to be way more like safeties, the ilbs have been lackluster and we have gone through tons… bush, bostic, Fort, shobert, Jack… not even counting the mid draft capital that didn’t pan out like Spence and BuddyAnother one and done, crazy.
I may have been at first thinking wow, we signed Myles Jack but after I thought about it I was like Jags knew something. I think what happens is we get caught up with how these guys played when they were younger forgetting that Myles had some wear and tear and started slowing down.Lol it’s such a crapshoot.

****. There will be no one left to draft 🙂I'm guessing they're not done and a DL nose type is next on the list to sign

So Holcomb is a starter, who suits up at the other spot?
Milked Jack played hard and remember he played hurt a good part of the season. At times he was the best ILB on the roster.
Now they’re one Jack off the rosterHe didn't do jack.
We play a ton of cover 2 and 3 out of a 3/4 base, which puts ilbs in coverage a ton but also doesn’t really tie up blockers in front of them making them susceptible to the run…This feels a lot like trading one set of mediocre players for another set of slightly younger and cheaper mediocre players at ILB. Here's hoping a serious investment of capital is to come.
The point on scheme is big tho, our ILBs are constantly getting abused in coverage by opposing offenses but I never see our offense doing it. Obviously Canaduh blows, but I don't watch a lot of NFL other than the Steelers...do other teams have ILBs that can cover? Or do most teams not ask their ILBs to cover?
