IMO, the Packers need to be looking very hard for Inside linebackers in the 2015 NFL Draft. He must be smart and have Gorilla Speed . 6'4" / 250 lbs or better.

Keeping the Hawk/Brad Jones experiment 3 years too long is going to be something Uncle Ted regrets the rest of his life. Funny thing is, all of us calling for their heads a long time ago had to keep defending ourselves against the rah rah boys. Can't play a linebacker defense without the linebackers.

Aside from 2-3 ILBs this year, the crop is pretty weak if you are looking for someone to come in and have some kind of instant impact.

Perryman and Kendricks are probably the two best linebackers with the instincts and great tackling ability. I agree that this has to be the 1st-2nd round pick but I can't even begin to look at prospects right now...

I and this forum would welcome any information on Draft-able Inside Linebackers or available Quality free agents . I'm confident that players will be available from the West, East , South , and the Mid West . Please share your thoughts, knowledge, and opinions !

As much as the links to sources is appreciated, this thread was created to solicit the opinions of this forums members.

Shaq Thompson, LB, U of Washington is a player worth a look.

Any free agents out there that are worth looking at ?

I am glad Barrington got some experience this year because he flashed some talent at times. It will be interesting to see how much he and guys like Bradford and Joe Thomas can improve. I don't know much about ILB rookie prospects at the moment but lately that position seems more like a luck of the draw one where teams are struggling to project them and weak LBs are getting taken early and good LBs are falling to later rounds.
