Abby Jones isn't awful. He's decent depth there.

Khairi Fortt and Jeremiah George were brought in to compete there. (OTTO) George actually looked quite good filling in at MLB for two games before he got hurt. Both are also considered ST aces. At least one will likely be your OTTO depth.

I think Jones would make a fine backup on most teams, but we rotate our line far too often to trust him that much in the running game. When Lamar Miller, Jeremy Hill, DeMarco Murray, Arian Foster etc were breaking off big runs, it was usually when our second line was subbed in. Gus Bradley is going to do that no matter what to keep the starters fresh so we might as well stack the line some more to ensure consistent performance.


Jeremiah George is a MIKE linebacker and is more of a Poz backup than an Otto. The Otto should have some pass rushing skills. I will admit that I have seen no tape on Fortt so I can't really argue about him.
