re: Our Defense looks stacked (as for starters), but who are our backups?

(Haralson)is like Humber, only better against the run.
Bingo. He's got the size and good hands to help him shed blocks. I really hope he continues to improve, I know they were relying on him pretty heavily towards the end of the season. Humber is more of a speedy linebacker, but for his size he really knows how to use his body correctly to tackle. If he didn't I don't think he'd be on a NFL roster as a linebacker.
Either way I think they really need to infuse some young blood into the LB corps this year in the draft and UDFA. You really don't see where your guys are at until you start matching them up with new talent.

Honestly I wouldn't be shocked to see Haralson beat out Hawthorne for starter minutes. He's better than Hawthorne at the one thing Hawthorne does well, and much better than him at the other things.
The problem I see isn't so much what we have this year(though it can definitely be upgraded). It's the fact that Haralson, Butler, Humber, Dawson, and potentially Galette(if you count him as an OLB) could all be FAs next year.
Maybe you can bring them back again, but if the play as well as I think they can than they could get better contracts elsewhere.
