Bucs DC Leslie Frazier hinted the team may need to find a new middle linebacker, upgrading on Mason Foster.
Foster is an attacking linebacker who likes to get into the backfield. In the Bucs' new "Tampa-2" defense, the middle linebacker has to excel in coverage. Foster has struggled with that ever since being the 84th pick in the 2011 draft. He graded out in the bottom half of Pro Football Focus' inside linebacker rankings this past season. Lovie Smith will be looking for his next Brian Urlacher.
I thought the job of a good co-ordinator was to to take the guys he has and put them in a position to win. We have more pressing issues on the defensive side of the ball. They also need a fast WR and a good DE and real likely a good QB because I'm not sure MG really has what it takes.
