Ellerbe was great in that role. Looked like a legit pass rusher.
Could be good mentor to our young LBs.

Ellerbe, when rushing the passer, technically was in a blitz, which is why he was effective...

Remembering back to Greggor's days: just because it's a blitz,that doesn't make it effective.

Well, it's also effective when Ellerbe is actually "available."

Man, you are so right! I have seen that man hit some players so hard that it's made me want to have his children right there on the spot. Unfortunately, I think those hits affect him worse than the other player. We do need him out there all the time and if not, then we need to find us someone who can be.
