From what I understand, Marcus will not be playing middle linebacker. But, that does not mean he'll never line up in the middle...same with Lavar. Gregg Williams defence is predicated on the element of surprise...players lining up in different positions, unexpected blitzes by safeties/CB's/whoever, etc. If Lavar comes back healthy, I think he will have a great year, but Washington may have an even better one because of having Lavar on the other side. With two pro-bowl LB's on the ends, at long as the MLB is smart and plays solid, he doesn't have to be spectacular.
As for Lavar's contract, he is still considered one of the top LB's in the league, hands down (when healthy, of course). So whether you think he is overpaid or not, he is being paid accordingly to that. And he is not going anywhere!

I hope he doesn't, I love the way the guy leaves it all on the field. It just seems like the Skins are planning something with the way they drafted and the salary cap delima they are always in. And you know how Joe hates friction from the players...

I think it will be super exciting this year to see Lavar, Washington, and ...

MCCUNES starting in the middle... I think that guy is going to be a killer!!!
