New York Jets: Dylan Donahue Could Be Dark Horse To Solve OLB Woes

One of the hardest transitions in the NFL is that of the player moving from a hand in the dirt (defensive line) to a standing 3-4 outside linebacker. Despite the difficulty, the New York Jets have tried over and over to find the player who can do it.

A swing and a miss as they say. Or perhaps a few misses, yikes. Well as the great Michael Jordan famously said, “You miss 100 percent of the shots you don’t take.”

So, you can’t blame the Jets for trying. The Jets have drafted 30 defensive linemen/linebackers this century.
