I'm not stating we will absoultely use him inside. Just speculating due to the fact that we don't play guys that small on the edge much. Our outside linebackers are bigger than our inside linebackers for the most part (although right now they are all around 250 except for Babin who is 260+). The OLB's have to take on Tackles more than the inside guys. In a 4-3 it will be reversed. It is not uncommon to see 230 pound OLB's in a 4-3, but you won't see too many 230 OLB's in our 3-4. That is why you don't see us drafting many traditional OLB's.
