I think all of those things make sense - Spaight is know as a thumper and Vigil did surprisingly well in coverage last year, he acquitted himself well.

The problem is Spaight may be good against the run but he's a disaster in coverage, and Vigil may have defended the pass well but not well enough to avoid being heavily targeted by QBs.

I do think we have a really solid ILB squad:

-Brown is a beast, if he can fix his coverage flukes (and I think he has the skill to do so), he can be a really great player

-I've said times and times again I think Foster is underrated, he's a true all around LB, more than decent coverage guy, solid tackler, good blitzer, tough mofo... love this player !

-Vigil played well last season, I'd be really curious to see what he can do behind a healthy and efficient DL !

-I respect Spaight because he's a good tackler, but that's about it, so far the game just seems to be a bit too fast for him (wether it's physical skill or reading plays...).
