I think Riley, Sheppard and Baker, but I also believe Chad Jones should be moved to LB once and for all.

Is Chad Jones big enough to play LB in the SEC?

what is his status with the team? Is he even on the team? Didn't hear his name this year and maybe that is a good thing. Hopefully he is keeping out of trouble and trying to get things right with the coaches.

Some of us have been called stupid for suggesting this all along, so watch it. Chad is a poor cover guy. He just doesn't have the instincts everyone expected in the open field.

I think Shep played well this year and I don't see an underclassman supplanting Riley. Baker excelled on special teams so I expect him to start at the other spot. Clemons should get a shot too. I'm all for moving CJones to LB, but I guess the coaches know more than me about it.

Theriot is still learning the position and I don't think he'll see much time on D next year. That being said, I think he'll be a stud sooner rather than later.

Let's see what next season brings before passing final judgment. A new coordinator and coverage scheme may work wonders for him.

Clemons was a head hunter in high school, but he never was in on many plays. He has always looked the part.

Cutera is expected to start at MLB. The consensus on the rant is that Riley is good enough to stay at OLB, although there aren't any plays that he made that stick out in my mind. Hopefully Baker or Clemons get some playing time at the other OLB spot. Does Ace Foyil play MLB or OLB? Anyone know how good he is?

I say Sheppard, Theriot, and Riley/Baker......Theriot-Sheppard will be better than Faulk and James tandem...mark my words!!

Yes 6'2' 230 is big enough to play linebacker in the SEC.
