2024 NFL linebacker unit rankings: Jets and 49ers take the top spots

[Mike135]

• The Jets' defensive dominance continues to linebacker units: New York also placed first in PFF's defensive line rankings.

 

1. NEW YORK JETS

The Jets rostered two of the 10 highest-graded linebackers in the NFL last season. C.J. Mosley and Quincy Williams were at their best in coverage, where they ranked first and second in PFF grade at the position, respectively.

I'm sensing an impending Spermicide!

WTF? List is awful. Raiders at 15? @Raideraholic Blasphemy!!

[Bronx]

It doesn't matter, because the leadership folds under pressure.  This coaching staff will not take this team to the super bowl.  

8-9, 17 years. 

[Jimmy 2 Times]

Crazy.

 

Our linebackers are after thoughts, yet considered the best group in the entire league.  

The position really has changed since I was a kid. 

[bicketybam]

There was only one man that could construct such a formidable, all world defense like this...

and this year he is out for REVENGE!!!!

[Jimmy 2 Times]

The salary cap ruins:

Every.  

*******.

Sport.

just like the dline i think the rating is more about the scheme than the actual players.  although quincy williams is pretty darn good.  moseley is on the backside.  sherwood is maybe average and the rest of the guys are pretty much unproven.

Defense line plays a big part in these lbs rankings.    Raiders finally  have a defense line as good as any team in football. ( they are going to hit the Qb alot) .   Less time Qb can hold the football , better your lbs look. also an offense line has to account for that defense line.( frees up to the lbs just to run to football- instead taken on blocks .   

Let’s just say with Antonio Pierce former great lb , Mike Caldwell -excellent  lb coach , Marvin Lewis ( assistant head coach - dc of the great ravens defense , Rob Ryan , and Dc Patrick Graham.    Raiders have lbs, and coaches ( who know what they are looking for) who can develop them.     They only play with two .   1 Robert Spillane - had excellent season . Divine Deablo - former safety has it all size6’3 240 speed 4.4 going into contract year. ( has to stay healthy- missing a lot games has hurt his development.  Will eventually be a bigtime star even if not in Raiders uniform.   3.Luke Masterson - former safety has played very well in relief of Deablo.  4Tommy freaking Eichenberg - guy they drafted this year.  5 Amari Burney - former safety - was I believe the guy that ran stride for stride with b bowers - tipped the ball away and Brock still caught for touchdown.  6 Amari Gainer( Florida st ) - I think this Udfa forces himself on 53

IF ?? ?         This Raider team going to win a lot of games in 2024 .    Unlike everyone overhyping the Jets  again( are they are going to win more than seven games) .    They can keep underrating this  Raider team .     They are going to put serious beating on a lot  of team.  

look at Tyree Wilson he’s bigger than Nt John Jenkins
