<span style="color:rgb(68,68,68);">Sources: </span> http://profootballspot.com/_/nfl/afc-south/jacksonville-jaguars/leo-and-otto-why-jaguars-fans-should-know-them-r3019 http://www.chatsports.com/jacksonville-jaguars/a/Jaguars-will-run-more-BEAR-front-on-defense-introduce-the-OTTO-linebacker-2-9867200 The different roles on Jaguars Defense: Leo- role stands for Lineman, end open. Leo is the 3<sup>rd </sup> down rushing end position, hybrid DE/OLB pass rusher (Chris Clemons mentor), Andre Branch, Ryan Davis, Chris Smith. Requirements for role – weight 240 to 265 pounds, runs fast, set a decent edge in run game & creates a pass rush! “He needs the ability to be a great pass rusher,” Bradley said via the Florida Times Union “You’re looking for a traditional right end but with great speed and get off [at the snap]. He can be a little bit lighter than most 3-4 defensive ends.” OTTO – role stands for (used to be strong-side linebacker) primary job to hold the edge against the run on early downs, then provide more of a pass rush & side to side coverage on 3 <sup>rd </sup> downs. LaRoy Reynolds, Dakoda Watson, Telvin Smith. Similar to the Jack LB of the old Bears 46 made famous by 1985 DC Buddy Ryan. "It's something that's new to us, so formulating exactly what he's gonna be. But, it's gone really well and our guys have adjusted to it and our guys are excited about it," Babich continued. "He can be strong or weak and most of the time he's going to be on the line of scrimmage, standing up." Depth at OTTO? LB Marcus Whitfield: He can play the Jaguars' new OTTO position, which makes him a valuable insurance policy in case Dekoda Watson or LaRoy Reynolds get hurt – Mike DiRocco ESPN |
