Quality LB's since/during LeVar:

Pierce
Marshall
McIntosh
Washington

It pains me to admit it, but Piece was nasty under Williams' system; Arrington lost his starting job to Lemar Marshall, McIntosh is starting to grow and misses tackles far less than Arrington did, and Marcus Washington has been a steady force.

Yes, Arrington could turn a game around with a single hit, but if he had any idea what his assignment was on half the plays it would be a surprise, and that was a far greater detriment than his hitting ability was an asset.

The point is, he is far from our only quality LB since he left. During his last season here, and in the years since, the Skins' linebacking corp has been, for the most part, tough, talented, and dependable. Arrington was only talented.
