[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 502156"] I don't think you can be too big to play ILB if you happen to run in the 4.6s. Poor coverage skills are a liability at any LB position if you expect the guy to be a 3-down player, though I would grant the point ILB coverage skills in nickel zone are critical, but that will be Jones' job for the foreseeable future. To reiterate, he's a straight line player, has some burst, and can unload on people, even if his coverage skill potential doesn't look too promising. Does that description remind you of anybody? To me it's kinda like a faster Desmond Bishop. And how good are his pass rush skills off the edge, really? He's got the burst, but he's somewhat limited in agility, movement in space and moves beyond the bull rush. What was the quote from one of the coaches this weak, speaking of Neal? I can't find the link offhand. Something like "he's very agile and athletic, works great in space, he can do anything". We can only wish we'd hear those words used to describe Perry since they are the desired attributes of a pass rushing OLB. I haven't heard them yet. [/QUOTE]
