You may not be that far off with Ninkovich after watching the way they used him in the second half at Washington, but Guyton is still #2 on the MLB depth chart and does a better job at taking on blockers than credited.

It’s going to be interesting to see if any viable backup ILBs come out of the roster cutdowns. Not that I’m expecting anything, but a salary cap cut might provide a little competition.

I’d still go with Moss, but Mayo’s close.

I guess I’m buying Reiss’s theory that no evident depth at LB will force more 4-3. That means one MLB, and he’ll be on the field for all three downs.

If Mayo gets hurt, I think we’ll see plenty of 5-2 defense (hopefully I’m kidding) or someone coming out of retirement. we really are pretty thin for quality (even mediocre) starters out there.

unless Mayo gets hurt

Banish the thought. Mayo is the most indispensable player on the roster not named Brady.

I figure unless Mayo gets hurt, you won’t need a backup because he’ll be on the field for every snap.
