Quote:There's only a handful of teams that use a LEO on the DL. Whether you want to call it the Buck, the Jack, the Elephant, or the LEO, there isn't much of a difference besides where they line up. Some are bigger, some are smaller, but the key traits of the position is speed and length. Leverage can quickly take size and strength out of the equation.

 

You're acting like they're asking our LEOs to play inside at NT or something. There's a reason why our LEO lines up so wide in our base. Good speed, leverage and length will make up for a 50-60lbs weight advantage real quick. The whole point is to get our more gifted athletes in some space, 1 on 1 and let them work.

 

I'd hope our OTTO was bigger than our LEO, considering our OTTO's first job is to set the edge in the run game. The OTTO can and will line up on either side of the formation. The OTTO will be on, or very close to the LOS.

 

Telvin and Clem will not be both lining up on the weak side every single snap.
