[CBFF] Ranking linebackers, team-by-team

[Matt Langschwager]

Check that link out.  According to the ratings, the Packers, Vikes, and Lions rank 22nd, 27th, and 28th in LBs, respectively.  And they'll all be running Cover 2.  And Rex practices against the best of the best.
   
  ...Our receivers shall be picking up some yards over the middle.

2. Bears Brian Urlacher has exceptional range, uncanny instincts, and great timing when he blitzes. He's not the best linebacker in the league at stacking inside running plays, but he's solid in pass coverage and a sure tackler. Lance Briggs led the league in Pass Stops last year (42) and had more total Stops (86) than Urlacher (80). Briggs is currently in Lovie Smith's doghouse for skipping a voluntary minicamp in a contract dispute, but he'll be back in the lineup when the games matter. The rest of the Bears linebackers are nothing special, but there is depth here. Hunter Hillenmeyer is a good run defender who doesn't make many mistakes. Rookie Jamar Williams may be the top backup this season.
