He's too small to get any consistent snaps at LB, teams would run right at him, and throw right to who he's covering.

He's basically playing a LB role when he blitzes from the box, but he's usually the unblocked man due to numbers

There was a very good argument for an OLB instead and had Jenkins not come along, a nose tackle as well.

I'm disturbingly sold on him with nothing to back it up at the pro level. Ugh. Really hope he can be that good! I'm sure he will be

Does this mean that every time he breaks up a pass or makes an Interception I can use the quote 'Clever Girl'

I'm assuming everyone will get that JP reference haha

Re: 1st Round Pick Draft Suckage

And the debate can re-ignite about moving Harper to OLB ... Could he do a role there? He did it from Safety on the blitz and he sucks in pass coverage so with a couple of men going down this is a very viable offering
