Yeah, I don't know what happened to Clark. I swear he played better as a rookie with no camp and coming in midseason than he did last year.
in '22 he had LVE to hold his hand and tell him where to line up. This year it was Bell.

I don't think it's an undersized LBer thing as much as it's a playing only 1 to 2 LBers at a time. Putting a safety at LBer because we are out of LBers. Like hey, you need more than 3 LBers on the depth chart. I don't remember what we had at LBer out of the final cuts but we went stupid thin.

LVE is big, Clark is big, Overshown is on the smaller side at like 230 pounds. But size isn't the issue. Having only Clark left at the end of the year was the problem. Having to move Bell from safety to LBer was the problem.

Bell can play. He weighs in at a shrimpish 205.

Honestly that weight is fine, maybe five-six more pounds of lean muscle

Key is there needs to be guys capable of blocking up front

Mazi really hurt us and Hankins frankly is a journeyman.

Yeah I think you have to make eating up blocks a priority.

I think he has potential and I haven't given up on him but I think he needs some better LBs surrounding him to help him at this stage of his career.
He is a limited player. I have resigned myself to that.

He also can go into the trade bucket I would have for Quinn but our dumb fuck FO does not.

I love Micah, he is still just a kid. But I have no doubt the guys gives everything he has on the field.
I guess it isn't his fault he is a used up shell of himself by the end of the year.

That's an over exaggeration but no I don't blame him for being a little worn down. The coaches should rest him more. Shit how many times do we watch a game and yell, why the hell is Parsons still in there. Yeah, like those snaps.

The offseason just started. The players are all off right now, and he said he hasn't been on any kind of social media.

I don't think it's a big deal that he didn't know. If he hasn't been following the news and hasn't been around the complex, it's not that big a shocker that he didn't know. Especially since he's not one of the defensive players.

I guess he’s still technically a Cowboys RB until the new league year starts in March
