Armchair GM: Tomlin and Timmons Need to Hug it Out

The Steelers didn’t select any Inside Linebackers in the 2018 Draft and the player they added in Free Agency, Jon Bostic has been either under performing or injured most of his career. Nobody seems to know what happened between Mike Tomlin, who selected Lawrence Timmons as his first, 1st Rd draft pick and the Steelers longtime Linebacker but obviously something went down.

Timmons may not be a Pro Bowl caliber player anymore but he is still better than anybody the Steelers currently have at inside backer save, maybe, Vince Williams. Given the way Williams likes to make big plays and go after the Quarterback he might be better suited at WILL, where our injured Ryan Shazier was playing.
