re: How do we feel about Divinity starting?

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.

Bower is a 4-3 end. So divinity is a better fit. Bower will get a lot of reps when we go 4 down lineman and in situations where his size and strength fit.

I think this is a common misconception. I think they want Bower to sub in for Key on the strong side so that we always have our best OLB on the strong side and force them to run to the week side of the field! Just my opinion, bring on the down votes if you disagree!

Some players born to be linebackers have a gift for playing in space. Hopefully this is an indication Divinity is one of those players.
