...we have too many LB's who are among our best 11. Can't put them all back at safety and subsequently push the safeties back to corner. Wilgar will be missed for his ability to play underneath and step into passing lanes but maybe he can add something just as beneficial by getting consistent pressure on the QB.

Just covering their bases.

6/26/20 6:54pm

As in . . .

Put players all over and see if they might excel elsewhere

6/26/20 6:59pm

I'm not buying that yet. I sure hope not.

6/26/20 6:57pm

I'm not sold quite yet either

Speed and strength at our weakest spot. This one absolutely makes sense

6/26/20 7:42pm

In some ways

But not as much in a 4-2

6/26/20 10:09pm

He'd be on the field either way.

6/26/20 11:13pm

Absolutely, but in a 4-2 he is a much higher impact Rush End

Worked out great to move Langi and Takitaki to DE because they were weak there.

I think there are times where moving a guy is appropriate

We haven't played the season. Who knows if they're weak.

6/28/20 12:41pm

I haven’t seen much description of the 4-2-5. Re: the rush end

Yes.

That's what you got from the article? Wasn't suggested at all and it may be

True, in that context perhaps he will be a MLB that occasionally lines up as a

Doesn’t matter. We don’t rush the QB

Define “rushing the QB.”

I guess we’ll see if it’s cross training or not

puntersarepeople

6/26/20 8:08pm

Not much is really changing by moving guys back.

6/28/20 12:51pm

And maybe it is just cross training so Wilgar can line up as a pass rush DE like

I see that as a part of getting your best 11 on the field...

The way I understand it is that in a 4-2-5 defense

We could've done this last year a bit more than we did...

icecougar

7/5/20 2:06pm

Cross training. That’s it.

6/26/20 7:45pm

So they can use the LB to blitz occasionally?

Another odd mention is Udo is a LB now?

Kajdin

6/26/20 7:53pm

No he’s a safety and that makes sense.

6/26/20 8:07pm

Weird.... I think I’ve heard this before...

6/26/20 9:37pm

I think McChesney is also.
