Anyone know the last time a young LB passed an experienced starter?


I can think of a few times when the talent situation might have made it possible, but I don't recall how the depth & experience dictated actual playing time.

In recent memory, I'd say Vince Hall could certainly have supplanted a starter. Did he? Or was he conveniently next in line for an essentially empty spot?

When Baaqee (and the D as a whole) was having issues, was there anyone behind him?

Didn't Bruce Taylor switch positions a few times? Lack of depth in general throughout the LB corps?

I feel that from a measureables & talent perspective, Lydon should have a legitimate shot at beating out Motuopouaka for the MLB spot, but will he?
