Correct. Part of the reason overall numbers fluctuate is due to the awareness drop for being OOP and the fact that the position ratings differences aren't nuanced so OLBs are graded the same whether it's a standup 4-3 OLB or 3-4 edge rusher despite these not being remotely the same positions so the low zone coverage numbers of the DE will drag his OVR down heavy despite it not mattering as much.
