mamba11,

Do you see Jakob's future at linebacker or defensive end?

my point of view is.....

it depends of the d-system and the abilities riquired on each position.

it´s hard to evaluate jj´s development form far away. i know he is in the best hands...

it´s really hard to say.....personal opinion is, that he sould be a hybrid....you can use his physical ability and speed on de....but you can also use his eye in passing situations....that would be my solution....

whatever he will play.....he will be good....

i just saw two games...not enough cause i missed to record them...

jj is able to become a good lb, de or the "hybrid"....he the question is....in wich role he fits best in the future ? form now, i would say de....but....the future will tell us the truth....i saw so many players in the last 20 years of coaching developing totaly different than expected...

and remember....jj came definately not trained for div. 1 football.....he is still developing faster and different than other players i guess....

i don´t know which position he ends up. but the first thing for a coach is.....use your talent there where it helps the team !

i know he wants to play lb.....and i hope he´ll get this chance but if he develops better for another position, he should understand that and take this chance.

This might tell us why he's developing the fastest.
