Default Dansby moving inside...

Somers' blog

excerpt:

As Cardinals fans know, Dansby has moved from strong outside linebacker to inside linebacker in the 3-4. One reason, Pendergast said, is that coaches think Dansby is a devastating player when he runs and hits. Dansby really closes on a target. At strong outside linebacker, he often had to take on a tight end at the line of scrimmage. That often negated Dansby's best attribute.

At inside linebacker, Dansby should have more freedom to roam and hit.

He's a great 3-4 LB in Madden

here is some info on Dansby

6-4, 240
Quote:
Dansby is big, rangy and very fast. He does everything with explosiveness. He hits a ton and tackles hard. He is all over the field and often around the ball. He has an excellent first step and flashes pop when taking on blocks at the point of attack. He is natural and very instinctive. He is smooth and fluid. He can play over blockers to get to the ball. He is agile, changes direction quickly and excels at slipping blocks and making plays on the move. He is outstanding on the blitz in an Arizona scheme that runs a lot of zone dogs. He has good closing burst to the quarterback and knows how to finish. He is fluid in coverage and gets good depth in his zone drops. He closes forward effectively in zones and makes pass-catching targets pay the price underneath. But sometimes things come too easily to Dansby. His conditioning and work ethic could improve. He could get stronger and better as a stack-and-shed player. He has the tools to be dominant, but he must get a little hungrier.
ESPN.com - NFL - Karlos Dansby - Arizona Cardinals - Player Card
I think this guy could be a star if they run a SD style 3-4. He is a bit small to be a ILB in a tradional 3-4 (they usually run about 260ish) but in the scheme SD and Dallas runs they are smaller, with the ability to blitz and drop into coverage (where alot of traditional 3-4 ILB's struggle) SD used alot of coverted 4-3 SAM's like Godfrey and Edwards (who was actually under 230, and may have been a WILL)

From the looks of his scouting report, he fits that to a T, and could be a star

Id drop him late in the season tho. They are transitioning still, and dont have a 2 Gap D-Line yet. Branch was a good start, but he is young and they still have holes their. Without a unmovable line, the ILBs get pounded buy much bigger O-Lineman, and he could easlily wear down the last quarter of the season.

Just a buyer beware

I think he could do well inside in a 3-4 that lets him attack. I thought he would have stayed outside one more season because I did not think that Cards had the players on the outside to afford to move him inside. What I have heard is that Blackstock is not ready to take over an OLB position every down.

Dansby and Buster Davis in the middle sounds like they will have a solid MLB combo for a long time
