Linebackers

by bs1220 on May 30, 2008 4:08 PM EDT

So here's my question:

Who are the starting linebackers for this team and what type of expectations should be attached to their play?

I remember hearing about the release of Takeo Spikes and several people said the Eagles' linebackers actually got more athletic with this move. I haven't followed the Eagles a great deal but I'm trying to get caught up. I've been looking around, trying to find out just exactly who is going to be starting for the Eagles but I don't have any clue. The most helpful website I've found is ESPN.com and they have Gaither starting twice. Hah. What are your thoughts?

jason told you the starts correctly you can expect this group to be a very good young linbacking corps. The are all big (Bradley 6’4”, Gaither 6’2”, and Gocong 6’3”) and are all above average athletes. Gocong and Gaither should be like ohh B rated linebackers this year and will get better. Bradley is a safe bet to be a C+ but if he fully grasps the defense he could be the best of the bunch. If you want to know more just look at my blog.
