Marcus in the Middle?

[SkinsRock]

From what I understand, Marcus will not be playing middle linebacker. But, that does not mean he'll never line up in the middle...same with Lavar. Gregg Williams defence is predicated on the element of surprise...players lining up in different positions, unexpected blitzes by safeties/CB's/whoever, etc. If Lavar comes back healthy, I think he will have a great year, but Washington may have an even better one because of having Lavar on the other side. With two pro-bowl LB's on the ends, at long as the MLB is smart and plays solid, he doesn't have to be spectacular.
As for Lavar's contract, he is still considered one of the top LB's in the league, hands down (when healthy, of course). So whether you think he is overpaid or not, he is being paid accordingly to that. And he is not going anywhere!
