LVE is a liability

[Sheepherder]

But what is his fault is he doesn't even look like his best year. How do you sell to your employer inconsistent work results?

"Hey boss I was great in 2018. Not as great in 2021. Let's make a deal for 2022 to 2026 based on the the average LBs contracts in the league. I promise you it will a way better deal than some rookie you draft."

Who will take that bait?

The man up in the box, who else.

 

[Denim Chicken]

Disagree.

Dallas uses him exactly how he needs to be used and he doesn’t hurt us at all because he’s off the field in situations that don’t play to his strength.

 

[John813]

Yea, I didn't see the value in him being an edge player/blitzing.
Doesn't have any moves.

 

[CATCH17]

Yeah that’s not a big deal.

 

[Majic]

Yes has been the OLB when we run the 3-4 the last few games. Slightly surprising I would have thought Kamara would have been given this role

 

[nate dizzle]

Liability? No.

Average/Solid player who isn't going to make a lot of splashy plays? Yes.

 

[DripTooHard]

You are right, he doesn't stick his shoulders into his tackles like he did in the past.

He routinely jumps on the back of a runner after said runner has passed by him. It makes no sense unless he is avoiding contact to his head and neck area. He seems like a good dude personality wise but football isn’t his thing given past injuries.

I had high hopes for LVE after his Rookie season but injuries have really taken a toll.
My observation of him is that he is bad on doing his assignments physically and he is also slow on his mental recognition.
He is constantly hitting the wrong gaps or slow to get there.
Great guy but an average player at best at this point.

Could have had Darius leanord instead. Oh what could have been...

 

[charron]

problem with LVE is that he is not parsons.....

That's a problem for many defensive players. Hell I think Parsons should backup Pollard this week at running back.

Fans for whatever reason forget LVE's playoff performance against the Rams his rookie season.

I will never forget Kris Richard pleading and yelling at LVE to stay in his gap of responsibility over and over again. He has never improved. I honestly would rather have Jaylon than LVE right now.

He should be gone next year

We need 2 starting caliber LBs next year. One in FA and one of draft

Christian Harris LB from Alabama should be the pick, he used to be a defensive back so you know he can play the pass and is pretty good at rushing.
