IF...Kwon leaves do we really lose much production with Debo Jones next man up?

I've been a big fan of Deion Jones over the years. He is without a doubt been our best special teams tackler over the last 3 years. He always seems to make an impact on the field in the few snaps he gets. Plus he has bulked up over the last few years. Will we really miss Alexander if he leaves?

Yes. Alexander is better than debo

An SEC team needs more than one star LB. In fact, you need more than three great ones.
I like your enthusiasm about Jones, and hope he would be able to be almost as good as K. Alexander, but having both would be best.

Love Debo but he's been a reserve LB for a reason. You'll see all his flaws exposed on every down. Kwon is definitely better so yes, we'll be losing a lot of production. He's our best LB.

Yes. He's been outstanding since given his chance.

It would be a mistake for Kwon to declare

tough call. hard to replace that experience alone, but we've had a couple LBs shine in their first yrs starting after having only been special teamers. Baker in 2010 (taking over at Will for Perry Riley), and then Lamin taking over for Baker in 2012.
I've always kinda wondered why Debo hasn't played Sam, since that where Chavis generally sticks the smaller, safety-sized LB of the bunch. really wanted to see a Debo - Kwon - Beckwith combo headed into the season (never been big on Louis, but he looked better late this yr).

Yes. Kwon is the man and holding this defense together this year.

Yes. Alexander is better than debo. Kwon plays better in space than anyone we have at LB

We will miss him but Debo has all the tools to step in and be a very productive backer
Posted on 12/27/14 at 4:11 pm to RaginRed
Starting LBs should've been
Debo
Beckwith
Kwon
Debo
Beckwith
Kwon

Kwon Alexander is our leading tackler. Yes, we will miss him. Sad that this thread exists.

Yes we will less production, but I think we should be ok with Beckiwht playing all year.
Debo makes a play and people assume that is the only time he is on the field.

Well, Kwon will be starting in the NFL next yr and Jones has yet to crack the starting lineup at LSU so that should speak to how big the gap is. Yes we lose production. Kwon was one of the best linebackers to come through here in the last decade.
