Devin Bush ILB - Page 3

A 5' 11" LB in round one? No thanks.

Players with physical deficiencies (height, weight, speed, etc.) typically start getting drafted in round 2.

What does height really matter there though?

I mean is 2 inches going to keep him from being a good player in there?

He plays aggressive and downhill. I think we need that in the D.

Because tackling with your shoulder is what we want our LBs to be doing.

To be fair, McShay picked a couple of blowup hits to showcase there. Bush doesn't have any problems wrapping up.

What the videos really show is that Bush diagnose's plays very quickly and runs like a safety. He's a stud.

Where do you put him? SLB? MLB?

I honestly don't know. He's a lot like DOD in many ways, so you'd have to figure out a way to get them both on the field (along with Hitchens) or you've got sunk costs somewhere.

This is why I’m anxious to hear the plan for Hitchens.

I’m guessing they put him at MLB, O’Daniel at WLB, and draft a SLB.

I don’t think we use a first rounder on a LB if that’s the case. I’m eyeing D’Andre Walker from Georgia in the 2nd for that spot.

If we draft somebody like Bush or Wilson in the 1st, I’m going to assume they don’t have much faith in DOD.

They don't really even have a SLB on the roster right now. Hitchens played MLB and WLB in both Dallas and in college. DOD is a Will.

If Houston takes a paycut.....I could see him being the SLB. But I'd much rather just draft a SLB and put Hitchens at MLB and DOD at WLB.

Play bush at the SLB spot

Eh seems like a weird fit and a bit of a waste.

If we’re going to take Bush put him in the middle, Hitchens at WLB (or vice versa), and keep DOD on the bench.

Like htismaqe said, we don’t really have a SLB on the roster.

I’d look at putting bush in the middle and the other two on the outside somewhere.

I suppose you can maybe put Hitchens there

O’Daniel - Bush - Hitchens
