Overshown and Barham

[jblaze2004]

Should they be the starting linebackers? If I was the coach Winters and Overshown would be fighting to start. Barham has shown he is the better Mike.

Winters and Overshown should battle for the WILB spot next to Barham. They can split time but the former Terp is the starter at ILB. I hope!

Anyone relying on Overshown to be a starter is barking up the wrong knees.

Barham needs to stay put. Overshown was never built to be a MLB anyway. In fact he might be better off losing 10-15 pounds and moving to strong safety at this point. Less traffic back there for his knees and lower body to deal with.

I don't think there's really much difference between O and Winters.

Deployment will mostly just be package-specific.

 

[CT Dal Fan]

Let me say I still think Overshown is a good player, the guy is just made out of glass.

100% the smart approach. Make them compete against each other for snaps.

It doesn't matter who's designated what. LBs get hurt, it's what they do, you play who you can.

so much for a two week injury lol

It's good on paper, the only thing is that. Over"Hasn't"Shown he can be dependable. The first ability is availability.

No need to rush him back for the Bucs.

The short week didn't really help. You don't rush soft tissue injuries. Dallas gets a little break after this game so Overshown probably comes back Oct. 18.

Oh no doubt. Would’ve been nice him chasing after Daniel’s. But need to think long term

Barham has earned his spot

Absolutely

Yep and I don’t think that’s going away.

I’m almost surprised he hasn’t been extended again.

Remember that’s Spauldings buddy. He appears to have the same draft strategy as his granddaddy.

Lovely.

Barham is a natural MIKE. Overshown should be WILL. Winters should be the backup. We need to draft Overshown's replacement next year.

R1: right tackle
R2 (if we have one) WILL

Hell he can have an ingrown toenail and will be out 6-8 weeks

Or maybe a low budget free agent for such an important need on our defense as usual
