Coaches clearly think he is a better fit at OLB than Tashawn Bower or Donnie Alexander, the 2 guys that depending on what the coaches wanted, seemed like the logical choices going into the season to play opposite Key. Seeing as though I thought those were 2 pretty solid options, and Divinity is apparently better than either of them, I'd have to say I feel pretty good.


Tashawn Bower is NOT a good option at OLB. He's a defensive end. You can put "OLB" next to his name all you want, but he's still not going to be able to cover Dalvin Cooke or Chubbs.

Also, to those saying, "If Aranda thinks he's good enough..." Aranda probably does not think he's good enough - just that he's the best we've got.

It's not that he isn't a good OLB,. it's that he is a much better fit at 'buck' LB, the position Keys plays, than the other OLB position.

same could be said for Arden Key. Key and Bower are going to play the Buck OLB. But it looks like Bower didn't work out well as the other side, 'F' OLB(?), position.
