55's the Mike

Who do you think plays where this year out of our LB's?

Rumors that Koa Misi will play MLB with Ellerbe (6'1 240) at SLB and Wheeler (6'2 240) replacing Burnett at WLB.

I would like to see this happen. Misi already knows the defense and is bigger than the other two at 6'3 251 lbs.

Last year Misi played DE in the nickle with Dansby and Burnett at LB'er.

Ireland is ignoring Parcels philosophy of standard size players. I wonder how many we missed out on just because they didn't meet Parcels requirements?

Looking at Dumervill sort of reinforces this theory since he is a DE at 5'11 255.

Eesti- I would be extremely surprised if Koa played the mike, although I have heard the organization talk highly of him in recent weeks... I would imagine Ellerbe will play the mike...koa has shown me nothing that he has the football knowledge to handle the responsibilities required of a Mike LB....

I predict Ellerbe is going to be a defensive captain and a Dolphin fan favorite somewhere around week 8, if not sooner. (barring injury, of course)

no one has said where Ellerbe will play. Ireland said he will leave it up to the coaches to decide and that all the players can play multiple positions.

Wasn't he MLB in bal? Makes sense he'd be that here.

Baltimore ran a 3-4 and he was the weak side inside LB'er. Totally different defense.

Berk- when Ray Lewis was hurt for a good portion of last season, Ellerbe played the mike... Most people assumed Ellerbe would take over the mike position in Balt this year... MISI has never played the mike position in college or pro or when someone else was injured.. That is why I am skeptical that he would take over that spot this year..but I guess u never know...

Why not just sign Brian Urlacher? He could probably give us a couple seasons, and he'd probably be better than anyone else on our roster at MLB.

Urlacher's knees are shot. No longer has speed which was huge part of his game.
