Dupree's highlights aren't overly impressive for me, i don't know if my expectations are out of whack but he's an athletic LB with average instincts and moves.

that's why I am not sure he will be elite. the problem is that we have pigeonholed the OLB position to be just pass rusher, and that's not smart. to be considered an elite OLB today, you have to have 12+ sacks; the res of your accomplishments don't matter. that's silly, and it is media created. I believe it is why this staff has avoided drafting them in the first, because they don't want to use a top pick on a one trick pony.

Dupree offers the ability to be a do it all OLB. We don't need another Galette out there. We need a Ricky Jackson that will put the fear in QBs, RBs and TEs alike.
