Demarcus Ware LB of DE?

[AmericasTeam]

In a 34 defense he is an OLB, but what about in a 43?

Is he a DE? ala Charles Haley

Or is he a LB? ala Brian Urlacher?

After all doesn't Ware have the fastest 40 time at the combine of all our LBers? Could he play LB in the 43?

imo it would be a waste of his natural pass rushing abilities to have him play OLB in the 4-3

 

[Cochese]

We spent all this time making him on OLB in a 3-4 and he is starting to play consistant game breaking defense. Lets leave him where he is.

He's a 3-4 OLB.

He's too small -- and has too much ability in other areas -- to be an every down 4-3 guy. He'd be more like a Leonard Little type (hopefully minus the vehicular manslaughter) who does nothing but rush the passer.

4-3 LB is out of the question. Total waste.

The guy is perfect for his current role.

 

[Vintage]

Sure. He becomes great at something, now we want to move him.

Par for the course with this staff.

You are right, Ware isn't arguably the best LBer in the league.

But I would wager Ware is top 10.

He's a DE in a 4-3 defense....

He isn't too small to be a DE.
It is obvious he prefers to play DE when you hear his interviews.
