I am starting to warm up to Reshard Cliett. I see them using him like D.Swagg or Kam Chancellor. The in-the-box Nickle-Linebacker. He is only 222lbs, which is light for a 3-4 Linebacker, but if the OG is in pass protection, then he can cover RBs or TEs, much better than Cushing. He needs to learn how to tackle better and perhaps that will come with some added bulk. He tends to grab and pull the ball carrier to the ground. We shall see. It's forward -thinking, and a bit innovative, so I like the theory.
I also like the idea of Bernardick McKinney playing OLB and having him pass rush on 3rd down. Versatility.
