Hats off to Hawk.

That said, I like Barnett better. I don't think Nick gets the credit he deserves. But yes, Willits is better than Barnett. But then again, Willits is better than everyone, so that's not a dig on Barnett at all.

I bet you don't want Barnett being the guy taking on lead blocks. They may both be ILB now, but they are not the same type of player. 236 lbs vs 248. Which guy do you want doing the dirty work.

Given a little time, we may now have the best LBer corp for years to come. Barnett is just 28 and he is the old fart of the group (now that Kampy is gone)

I have a lot of trouble believing Barnett still weighs 236. He looks WAY bigger this year to me, like 245ish.

He plays waaaaay bigger than his size indicates.

-off topic- but this reminds me of the whole draft BS; where sudden players are 2-3 inches taller and 20-30 pounds heavier. I remember everette browns stats seemed to differ everytime I looked at em.

glad we didnt grab him ...

Summary: We have 3 Pro-Bowl-quality LBs. That's an awesome problem to have.

The only thing I care about is performance. Barnett consistently gets 100+ tackles a year, except last year when he missed 7 games. This year, he has 4 sacks to go along with his tackles.

I actually prefer Nick's tackling, but Hawk is better in coverage. You'd think only if you saw their sizes that it would be the other way around.

Not me, Hawk looks bigger easily to me. He is much thicker in the lower body.

If Jones improves for the future, nobody will want to play our LBers.

He looked like a freigth train on that interception. Same horrible speed, as well.

I like Barnett more than Hawk. I know, Hawk is doing the dirty work etc., but when you see those two guys on that same blitz or see both of them pursuit a back, it's usually Barnett who's doing the better job.

And his stats tell that, as well.

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Collin Whitchurch @cowhitchurch · 1h Chicago got a pope before it got a QB to throw for 4,000 yards in a season.

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning
Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?
beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.
beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.
dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.
beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans
