OLB's at DE?

What are your thoughts on putting OLB's at RLE/RRE? is this common or is it just foolish? I have two OLB's at the ends currently and they seem to work well with edge threat and the secondary position as an end. Should I keep doing this?

It's a very common practice to put pass rushing olbs at rush RE and LE. Not foolish at all.

Gotcha, Thanks!

No problem at all, earlier in the year when i couldnt afford aaron donald i had 87 rolb robert quinn as my RE and RRE too, he was a beast

I use my OLB as ends then my ends as DTs. Nickle D obviously tho

Same. Pass coverage OLBs aren’t very good so I always use pass rushers

I do the same. I HIGHLY recommend Jevon kearse at rush dt. He is so nasty.

I still like using them. I just user the one with the worst zone. You'll be surprised how many picks I get with them thinking the LBs won't jump lol

Why only Nickle D? I have an OLB at RE too but am wondering about the ends at DT.  I have a good one I can’t use.

Thx. I’m using Ingram at RE now and his block shed and pass moves all break the 90 threshold. Gay has  better block shed but both pass moves are in the 80’s. For DE I guess the pass moves are as important as for the DT’s?

Yeah I like doing that when I can
