Could Manny Lawson be an ILB next to Willis?

6'6 is too big to play the ted backer. He's gotta be able to tie up blockers.

First of all, I wouldn't assume Brooks would replace Manny...Singletary's hinting there'll be a 3-way competition for the two starting OLB positions. If anyone gets replaced, I'd say it'd be Haralson. Manny does more things well than Parys does...he's a much more accomplished OLB. Ideally, we draft a stud pass rusher...say a Jerry Hughes for example. He then becomes the 3rd down rusher, and we have him and Brooks as bookends.

Oops...didn't answer the entire question. Spikes' heir apparent is McKillop. He's a tackling machine and will compliment Willis very well. He's learning and should be ready to go when Takeo's about done. Manny's an OLB...for obvious reasons.
