Mathis switched positions his last year and so did Feeney. Also - I guarantee they are not worried about what he's going to play in the NFL.FKA_Mousecop said:
I've seen this get passed around a decent amount in the short time I've been active on this site. He would probably be the best option on the roster, but I just can't see him switching positions for his r.Sr year when he's going to be a MLB at the next level anyway.NEsnake12 said:

I think our best 11 on D are probably:
DT: Gaines, Vea
BUCK: Benning
SAM: Zeem
MIK: Tevis
WIL: Kei
CB: Miller
CB: Murphy
NICK: ?? Joyner
S: JoJo
S: Rapp
The thing is, you just don't know what the coaches are thinking so they could have some plan to change things a bit. But the key clue about our current style is that they are recruiting to it. They talk about the nickel position and they never say D-End in recruiting. They only recruit BUCKs/SAMs.
Also - Benning didn't bulk because he's the body type they want - and, as you said, he's an athletic freak. He's tall and fast - and although he is big, he's not a wide guy. Jaylen is slow, Levi is slow, Ali Gaye is slow, Jason Scrempos is slow, etc. -
We've seen the DE/OLB/BUCK transition which isn't entirely uncommon, but going from MIKE to an OLB position is something we haven't. I also think Feeney's position switch was more the result of the coaching switch than anything else. I really don't see why they would change our leading tacklers position, especially for Tevis. Not that Tevis Bartlett isn't a great player, but it's still a decent step down from Azeem. If Victor doesn't break his leg he's probably a top-50 pick in the draft.Dennis_DeYoung said:

I think your projected defense is pretty accurate, but just switch Zeem and Tevis really. If they saw this as the future, they wouldn't have moved Bartlett from ILB to OLB in 2016 only to switch him back when they move Zeem outside. I think Bartlett would've been playing instead of Beavers if that's what they wanted. At least that's just how I see it.

Well I guess you're right about that, but it's still a very different situation to Victor's. SAM to BUCK is a very different step than MIKE to BUCK/SAM because of the similarities between SAM and BUCK.dnc said:

And while you're right he didn't switch to BUCK until his senior season, I think we won't see quite as much moving around of the pieces as we did during the first few years, since we've recruited more to Coach Pete and Kwiatkowski's defense. -
So you think that DL to BUCK is easier?FKA_Mousecop said:

I never said anything about one being easier than the other. But DE to Pass Rushing-OLB is a very common transition. There are players who are 4-3DE during their entire college career, but go to a 3-4 team at the NFL level and thrive as an OLB.Dennis_DeYoung said:
