Archer: LB search continues

[Chocolate Lab]

Elliss is very intelligent, a green dot, can rush, and can play. Just sign him.

Pick 12

They could get Allen or Rodriguez in the 20's.

Could not agree more.

I think he is waiting to see what SF does with Warner.

 

[Stash]

I think everyone's hoping for Okereke.

It feels like he’s the most likely option if they sign a free agent.

I love Elliss but he already signed with the Saints...

I'd still like to get Allen because he is the most complete, pure MIKE having done it for three years. BUT...I wouldn't be mad getting Rodriguez, who might be less polished but a bit more dynamic. I see him being something like Schwesinger was for the Browns in 2025. He was DROY.

Allen might not survive to 20. I know Rodriguez probably would.

That was posted Tuesday before he signed...

Ah - my bad

Bobby Okereke seems to be the last man standing.

Bobby Okereke seems to be the last man standing.

Unsure why he hasn’t signed. Schotty loves him

 

[Verdict]

I would aim higher than this but Barton or Heineke, or Murdock would be an improvement over what we had last season, even as rookies.

I think Overshown is a starting ILB in this defense. That doesn't mean we won't sign an ILB and draft one, but I think it's more likely we'll draft one early if we get a place-holder like Okereke in free agency because we expect Overshown to start.

I mean, one of the comments that came out of the discussions with Parker is that the team was excited for the plans he has with Overshown. That led to speculation that they were going to move him to OLB before it was announced that Eze and Liufau would be OLBs but nothing was said about Overshown.

I can’t imagine they are seriously counting on Overshown. Are you?

He’s played 19 of 52 games and did not look to the same last year.

They need at least two LBs

Is there a connection?
