ILB DeMarvion Overshown: Scouting Report

Overshown is fast, athletic, and experienced. As a former defensive back, he's solid in pass coverage and zone coverage concepts. He's one of the fastest linebackers in this draft class with great acceleration and agility to cover space. He also comes with a very high motor.

His size (6-3 and 230 pounds) and strength are somewhat concerning for an inside linebacker that will be asked to stuff the run. Still, Overshown has all the tools to fit into most defensive schemes.
