The Dallas Cowboys have been looking for a linebacker with the instincts and talent to follow Sean Lee's legacy for years. It took a few years, but the team may have found someone worthy of the mantle.

In Jeremy Fowler’s annual poll of position rankings, DeMarvion Overshown finished as the NFL’s eighth-best off-ball linebacker by various league executives, coaches, and scouts.

Highest ranking: 4 | Lowest ranking: Unranked

Age: 24 | Last year’s ranking: not eligible (rookie)
