Do teams have to game plan around a player, until they do that player can be upgraded.

I don't think anyone was saying that. Statistics don't tell the whole story but they do indicate production. Myself and others wonder why so much draft focus has been at LB, not because we have 3 all-pros starting there. Instead, it's because I think we all see youth, some depth, and a number of players that looked like they belonged in the NFL. Meanwhile, if you look at our serious lack of depth at RB, interior OL, and a real lack of production and athleticism from the saftey position then LB hardly seems like a position to be targeted in the first round.
