My understanding regarding Glenn is that, as a former halfback, he has fine athletic skills and would make a fast linebacker. Also he seems to have enjoyed hitting people like a linebacker should. He also has not had the time at LB to develop bad habits and thus would be a blank slate which Blache could turn into the kind of player he wants.

I'm not defending the Glenn pick as much as I am saying that the FO MAY have had some valid reasons for picking him.
