There are 1,000 LBs that can look good when their only job is to shoot gaps. Pass coverage is the skill that earns you a roster spot in the modern NFL. He has a long way to go to have the necessary mental processing to play at this level.


I agree to a point about pass coverage, but you still have to be good enough against the run even in the modern NFL.


If you aren’t physical enough to deal with blockers or smart enough to avoid misdirection, that can be a huge Achilles Heel. Even the most pass-happy NFL offenses will gladly just run the ball down your throat if you can’t stop them. 
 

EDIT: forgot about pass rushing LBs too.
