I agree. The benefit of this situation is the emergence of Franklin. When he used to come in for just a few plays, you could see the unfamiliarity hampering his game.
Now he's shown himself to be a real solid LB, probably even a little better downhill and against the run than Leonard... But Leonard's an All-Pro for his range, coverage, and turnovers.
Who knows if we'll ever get to see full strength Leonard, Okereke, and Franklin (even Speed) compliment each other?
