I can make an argument for this. This group is going to need a new starting outside linebacker next season assuming Rocky misses the season. Also, Marcus Washington's best days are behind him IMO. I don't think he can't play anymore, but I think he may have about 2 or 3 years left of being very good. Also, London was great this year, but I can't guarantee that he can be counted on for more than next season or the year after.

This is an aging group outside of Rock and HB Blades, that does not bode well for us. However, I don't feel like LB should be a priority for this draft, but next year it could be the #1 pick.
