Upvote for Werner downvote for Alexander


Kwon is special when he’s on the field. Werner has been super solid, and really hasn’t done anything to lose the starting position.

Play both to lessen the likelihood of Kwon getting injured.

Got to agree with Mouth. If you are healthy and cleared to go you play. The coaches know how to use Kwon best. Can't save players for later because your worried about unforeseen injuries.

Best LB corps in years for the saints. One of the deepest rooms imo.

This isn’t really one or the other. They will be used in different situations. Both will play.

Werner is the future. You let them battle it out, but if Werner is just as good, you put him out there.

Use werner as safety and move Jenkins to nickel because cgj has played like absolute arse.

True about CGJ, even though people don’t wanna hear it.

Werner’s time is coming very soon but right now it’s Kwon and it’s not close. He changes the entire defense and the way Dennis Allen calls the game too. Werner will be the 3rd LB.

Werner against the run is not even close. Against the pass it’s close. But I have to say Davis loves him some Kwon.

With the NFL cracking down on taunting it kind of impacts his game a lot. Getting into the opponents head is part of what makes him great

Kwon brings an energy to the defense that I think the coaches love. That matters and I think you have to find a way to get him on the field

Or we can just go with a 4-3 and keep all three talented linebackers on the field.

Oh cgj has looked nothing like himself.

I hope he gets in his grove.

I'd almost leave werner out there but i think kwon will start.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong as some of our LBs have changed positions from the 3 LB positions in the last year. I believe Werner and Kwon are the same prototype WLB and neither are suited to play SLB, iirc, that's the position Baun plays well. I may be way off on that. Werner and Kwon are both athletic and have coverage ability but may not be as good at taking on blockers and stopping the run which Baun is better suited for. Obviously Davis plays the middle but he's played Will before.
