Why DeMarvion Overshown will be a heat seeking missile for the Dallas Cowboys

I think he will be a lot of fun to watch

Good stuff, thanks for sharing!

You Go!!

Quinn will figure out the best way to use him and he will be a impactful player. There is no question he has very high potential. I hope he turns out to be a late 3rd round steal that makes the league wonder why they passed on him.

 

[JBS]

I highly doubt he will be a day 1 starter

He may never start but he’s going to play a ton.

I think LVE and Clark will play the most at LB and Overshown is just going to be a matchup piece.

 

[This is Our Year]

I could see him being a better version of Kevin Burnett for us with Dan Quinn at the controls on defense.

 

[Jarntt]

I think he will be a great STer from day 1. Hopefully we give him (or Cox or really both) some snaps in the nickel defense. We need a LB who can actually play some defense in the short middle of the field when we are in zone to let our pass rushers get to the QB. He is only playing in the base D if we go 3 LBs. He can play on the weakside. He isn't an NFL safety and he isn't likely playing the Kearse role as everyone is assuming. He was moved from safety because he is a better fit as a LB. He is a good fit for the Neal role which was more LB than safety even though both are hybrids roles. Not exactly the same. Love his potential.

I’m thinking a bigger Donovan Wilson.

Like when people think of Micah Parsons skill set I think this guy actually has the instincts to do the things that people think Parsons can do but really can’t.

Besides pass rushing of course.. I’ll believe it when I see it but they think he can do it.

Guarding the flats, spying QBs, and blitzing up the middle should be an easy transition for this guy.

Yeah, parsons can do all of those things you don’t think he can do

Parsons linebacking is so overrated it’s pathetic.

He lacks instincts for the position.

The Cowboys got it right by moving him from a position he doesn’t make an impact at.

 

[ESisback]

We’ve got so much potential talent on defense. With Quinn pulling the strings, top 3, IMHO.

Yeah those aren’t the other things that you are referencing though..he can play all over the field..shoot, he can probably play in the slot and be halfway decent ..he definitely can cover rbs and tes

 

[CowboyFrog]

He is a physical playmaker..DQ will get plays out of him. He was always around the ball in every UT game, be interesting to see what we can do with him.

 

[RonWashington]

Had high hopes for Jabril Cox and so far …let’s see how pre season shakes out for Overshown .

To me there is a diference between Jabril and Overshown..while Jabril made plays in the NCAA he was not the defensive anchor, Overshown was UT's defensive playmaker.

 

[Blast From The Past]

He is quick on his feet. I think he is more in line with a swiss army knife. He can do multiple duties on this team as DQ sees fit to utilize him on. Starter or not he will contribute this season.

 

[JayFord]

I wonder can he function as Jamal Adams does

because if he can than my goodness we got a MAN
