The thing about Schobert is he dramatically improves the all the LB’s around him. That doesn’t show up in the stats. I have no idea why we let him walk.

It’s in bold. Analytics places zero value on linebackers.
Freedom!!!
I’m a huge baseball/sabermetrics guy, but I just don’t trust analytics with football, it’s more “eye test” for me. Baseball has a uniformity and a focus on individual tasks which lend it to quantitative analysis. Football is a team sport in which players are drastically affected by the dude next to them and also often have completely different jobs within the same position depending on coaches.
What I’m saying is I miss Schobert and Kirksey, and both Smith and Takitaki blow.

As for the group as a whole the LB on D have the most responsibilities as they are in the middle of the defense. Therefore it stands to reason the group affected by covid shortened offseason and lack of preseason would be the the LB group.
