Who do you believe has looked better at the OLB position between Roth and Holliday? I think it is very interesting that they are trying this out because that definitley fills a hole that JT left. And with the logjam at DE, this could free up some space for the young guys to get more experience and playing time. I wonder if either of them can become the permanent starter across Joey Porter. Should be interesting and IMO I hope that one of them can show enough promise at that position to start. Anyone have anything? Or maybe something I had missed in the camp reports, but I did not notice anything stating how good or bad either looked standing up. Thanks in advance!

Roth and Holliday are 3-4 defensive ends, not outside linebackers. Right Now Roth and Holliday are starting, but Merling and Langford are pushing them. The OLB's are Porter and Anderson, with Moses pushing for the OLB spot as well.

From Omar kelly's blogs today on the Sun-Sentinel, he states Holliday looks great in camp as does Langford. Moses is doing great things as a 3-4 OLB speed rusher, but struggles with the run support which will likely keep Moses as a nickel pass rusher with Anderson playing on 1st and 2nd down.

Lots more to happen before the dust settles....

Ok I know all of that. But they have both been getting reps at OLB and could potentially play there full time. Thank you though for your post.
