What you see on film is sort of a tall, rangy, instinctive linebacker. He makes plays, and that`s what I really like. He`s a guy who`s always around the ball, not just every now and then.

We`ve got some athletes who can make plays. Denzel Gayden had an outstanding ballgame. Denzel flip flopped from defensive end to linebacker. Along with Ennis Sullivan and Chris Drummer, those three guys are seniors and guys that we`ll depend on to lead us...
John Carr
We liked him as a defensive end coming out. He played linebacker in Pittsburgh and we asked him if he was interested in putting his hand down and playing defensive end again and he liked that. We thought he was a heck of a player coming out of Florida Sta...

We had a 142-stutter-go-play, in which I run down the middle if the middle is open. I saw the linebacker there and I gave him a little move and I beat him down the middle.
Matt Murphy
Through high school, college I`ve always been known as a heady football player. (At Michigan) we ran a very NFL-style defense and my defensive coordinator and linebacker coach (Jim) Herrmann threw a lot at us. He made me a student of the game and made me ...

Quarles has great versatility, but we also like him as our middle linebacker. Ruud, some time in the future, will get his chance to play. Ryan has earned the job in Jeff`s absence.

Michael Gottbreht is a three-year starter at linebacker, Allen Lagrange is a two-year starter, and Aaron Biggs is moving there after starting at cornerback the last two years.
Barbara Jean Washington
Linebacker fits me perfect, ... Not only is it a thinking position, but it`s a physical, get-after-it position. I think that is a big thing with me fitting at this spot. I love to run downhill and hit people, but I also love to think out what they`re doin...
John Hale
K.J. (Smith)`s had a very good camp. He had a good spring ball and I like him there (at middle linebacker). I think it`s a good position for him.
Archbishop Diarmuid Martin
It felt good to finally get a touchdown. When I caught it, I saw the linebacker go to my outside, so I turned to my inside and once I turned inside it was wide open.
Andy Fecht
I think I belong at linebacker. That`s why I made the progress that I did, ... When I come into something that`s new, I thrive on that. I sat down and studied the position. I read a couple of books (about playing linebacker).

John Hale
I never really did like linebacker. In high school I played receiver. I was already undersized. I never got over 220, ... Back at safety, I`m starting to have a love for the game again. In college it was more like a job that I had to do to get an educatio...
Aswad Hopewell
I love running receiver routes, ... I`m too big and too physical for a corner or a safety to cover me up and too fast for a linebacker. So it`s a mismatch.
Michael Pittman
I already believe I am the best linebacker in the game. Now, I have to show one more thing ? that I am the most dominating, influential person in the game and the best football player to ever put on a pair of cleats.
Ray Lewis
Having been a linebacker in college, I feel I have an advantage because I can easily associate with my guys. I can understand what they see and experience on the playing field, and it helps me teach them how to react and what techniques to use.
Ariel Pestano
Dwayne`s our general; he makes the entire defense go, ... He`s got all the physical attributes to be successful at the position. More importantly, he`s got great instincts, the mental makeup and personality to be our middle linebacker and defensive captai...
Tom Mason
Dave Wilcox (former San Francisco 49ers linebacker) is in the HOF, and to take nothing away from Dave because he was a great player, but I think I was as good as he was and I`m not in,
Arnon Soffer
Being down there, playing for Miami, going to high school down there, I`ve always watched Zach, ... Zach is a good friend of mine and I love the way he plays. I just think he`s got a great motor and a great nose for the ball. Any time you have that as a l...
Dan Morgan
A little more movement of the defensive side of the ball, some rules that will be unnoticed, but a big rule will be allowing the jack linebacker to move out of the box sideline to sideline.
Ron Jaworski
(Hunter is) one of the top players in the country, and you`re talking about a guy who has scholarship offers from around the country, ... I think the thing that separates him from other linebackers is he doesn`t have just good speed for a linebacker, he h...
