LB — 5 — Nate Gerry, T.J. Edwards, Davion Taylor, Duke Riley, Shaun Bradley
This group has quietly gone about its business during training camp and could finish the season as a bright spot for the Birds. Alex Singleton could force the Eagles to carry a sixth linebacker. Nate Gerry will certainly start and gets better each day. Davion Taylor is a project and will likely make his name on special teams. Special teams captain and standout Duke Riley has earned himself some three-down reps and could provide a spark in passing situations, while T.J. Edwards figures to have a prominent role along with Shaun Bradley who can play all three spots.
