The draft is pretty deep at LB, but can a rookie LB come in and earn a starting job in this defense? Right off the bat I doubt it.

At least we have some options because of Marshall's versatility.

Even if we took a LB in the 2nd round, he wouldn't play right away. But you could get away with Clemons or Jayshon Sykes or McCune for a month, and then go to the Rookie. We'd likely be looking at 4-1 at that point regardless of who is playing the 3rd LB spot.

Holdman really hasn't ever been much. He could be OK in GW's system, but you can draft a guy cheaper.
