Why does no one want to take a LBer? Alec Ogletree would do WONDERS for this defense

1:42 mark


Speed for days, athleticism, excellent tackling fundamentals, not a liability in coverage, can blitz very well, can really LAY THE WOOD, always around the ball.... it would be a dream if we got him...

I for one, hope he is there for our pick at 19! We need REAL LBs on this team for a change.
That kind of play at 1:48 is what we need!!

He will definitely fall to us at 19 since he got a DUI. He would be a perfect fit for the Cowboys.

Who is saying they dont want a LB, i have seen a million people on this board say they want Ogletree

and the 1 42 mark, notice the dl kept him clean. when ol get their hands on him, he becomes ineffective

You can say that about most LBs, That is kind of them m.o. of a DT.

eh i guess...notice not one of the highlites above involves shedding a blocker tho or something really...when OL get on him, he's done. and thats not what u want to be saying about any lb in the nfl...at the nfl level, shedding OL becomes a huge part of the job as a LB unless ur a pass defensive specialist

My exact sentiments, and when you look at the DTs on our roster an there most recent performance makes me wonder if we need to get a DT in the draft. In the end I think it would be a mistake to drat for need in the first round. BPA, no matter what. At 19 I like Ogeltree's chances of being our BPA. The best DTs will be gone as well as the top OL and DEs.

honestly, hes built like a wr somewhat. he'd be a beast on the edge as a 3-4 pass rushing OLB imo, not really fit for us unless we want to invest some time before using him as a mike...jwill has a lot of ogeltrees skillset

He was a SS converted to Linebacker...much like Urlacher was. I don't see nothing wrong with that.

He's put as the best Middle Linebacker in the draft by many and he's what we need, he should be our top priority.
