Comparing Bobby Wagner and LVE with recent stats

Here’s comparison of recent stats:

Bobby Wagner:

• Has started every game for 4 straight seasons
• Averages over 80 solo tackles a season for 7 straight years.
• Had 140 total tackles, 81 solo last year
• Had 6 sacks in 2022
• Had 2 INTs in 2022
• Had 10 TFLs in 2022
• Had 10 QB hits in 2022.

This does not look like a guy who has declined significantly.

LVE:

• Has only played one full season without missing a game over a 5 year career and has missed 22 games over that period.
• Averages about 57 solo tackles a season over 5. (Had one great year in 2018 in tackles)
• Had 90 total tackles, 54 solo in 2022.
• Had 1 sack in 2022.
• Had 1 INT in 2022.
• Had 4 TFLs in 2022.
• Had 1 QB hit in 2022.

I like LVE, but Wagner is a bona-fide HOFer and 6 time first team ALL Pro who still has lots to give.
