I am in favor of the best LB win the position regardless of their name or draft position. I hope they both do well and we have great depth. I have mentioned in a prior post that it will be much easier for Marshall to play Outside LB after after playing at the MLB position. That experience will make him a better football player because MLB is a much more difficult position to play. He will have an immediate advantage over Rocky. But with experience and better athleticism Rocky will catch up and most likely surpass Marshall with time.
No need to be negative about Rocky. He has little NFL experience.

I'm on board with the logic here. In addition to Marshall's experience and the fact that he'll be an above average WIL i think im switching over for Marshall to start.
Rocky has value on special teams, and he could learn strong side and weak side while backing up the starters, increasing his value to the team. If he doesn't start this year he is certainly not a bust.
