Anthony Butler LB UDFA

[CR91]

 

Everyone talking about Deon Jackson, but don't sleep on this kid. He can beat out Glasgow.

[Smonroe]

He better be great on STs to have any chance.  There were very few highlights were he was actually blocked, so it’s hard to tell if he can play LB at this level.  
 

I wish him luck and hope he can show enough to make the PS.

Glasgow isn’t on the team for his ability as a linebacker.   He’s on the team because he’s a Special Teams ace. 
 

Ballard got a tip about Glasgow when the kid was a freshman.   Kept his eye on him for four years.   We used a 6 on him.   Our last pick of the 2020 season but it was a 6.   In other words, we really, really like him.  And he had a very good rookie year. 
 

So if Butler is beating out Glasgow, he’s going to have to do it on ST’s, not as a LB.

True, but Glasgow is limited to just that STs. Butler imo can actually play LBer. Course we have to see if he can do it at the pro level, but if he can and looks good on STs then he can get his spot.

Butler would have to be better at LB than one of... 

 

Speed, Adams or Franklin.  That’s who he’s competing against.  And now you can add the newly signed FA,  Jackson.   The odds of Butler being better than Glasgow at ST’s are very,  very small.

Jefferson is a camp body imo. He can't stick with a team. Keep in mind we did keep 7 LBers last year.

I mentioned four players and you talk about one of them.  
 

It’s almost as if the other three don’t even exist....   (poof!).   
 

Ok...    whatever...

Great video, I was looking forward to us drafting a late day 3 linebacker but udfa will do just fine

Competition for the 3rd position on the 2nd level is wide open lets go

Sounds like a great kid from interviews, but very limited. 4.88 40, sub 30 vert, poor 3C.

 

At his size 6-1 and 230, that's just not good.
