LB Room upgraded?

[inWV]

Last season
Shavers - true freshman
Bullock - solid veteran
Thompson - journeyman
Gbayor - on the rise
Wright - versatile defender

2025
Shavers - possible breakout year
Watson-Trent-serious productivity
McCullough-athletic freak
Wright-versatile veteran
Jones and Merritt - have been told to get ready to play

Would have been nice to retain GBayor, but Watson-Trent is a tackling machine. Is it possible that McCullough plays river?

Edge is often included with DL.

What about McGahee?

Jack and Rover are the two single positions and NU has MaGahee. I’m talking about the other two spots.

I think we'll be good at LB this year. I'm personally most worried about the OL performance followed by the DL performance.

The question I have is whether there is any plan to look at McCullough at Rover. He seems like a guy you want on the field and not in a rotation. Can he handle that volume?

I think he will play mostly at rover. Hopefully mostly in the box and coveting TE’s like Giff did in ‘23.
