High FBI, can cover and rush the passer.

Unicorn but the prototype for the modern day Linebacker.

What Height do you want your LB to be for the Cowboys, some are shorter in size 5'11-6'0, or would you prefer a taller LB like the size of LVE about 6'4?


What weight would you want your LB at for the Cowboys, there are some that are 220lbs starting off, may be a little lighter, or do you prefer a bigger thumper type of LB in the range of 240+


What skills must he have to be the LB you want, some are good at just being a run stopper, some excel in stopping the pass, some can do both, some are good at doing it all going from sideline to sideline


Build your own LB for the 2024 Cowboys!!! We need them badly!!!!!

For MLB....gotta be Ken Norton Jr .like......6'2 about 250 and physical and mentally tough.... Tough as nails. Leader and intimidating. Clone me Norton and that would be great. We don't have one on the roster.

For OLB,...i think we got some potential in Overshown..6'3 240...and runs like the wind, sideline to sideline...get me another one like him... unless Clarke 6'3 240.. can get coached up by Zimmer. But still want to get another one.

One that can plug a hole, can run sideline to sideline to make a play, apply pressure to QB when asked, and most importantly........not get pushed 10 yards downfield by an OL.

Physically, I'll take Micah.

Neither Micah nor the team seem to appreciate what a force he can be at LB on run downs. On passing downs, always put him at DE. But on other downs, his role flex to do *anything* you'd want from an off the ball LB is unmatched. Speed to carry a WR downfield, elite blitzing, speed and power to go sideline to sideline in run defense, speed and power and agility to fill gaps and pound RBs backward.

Yup. Parsons is being woefully underutilized.
