    Realistically he could very well play safety, you think?

    all kidding aside, he could easily be a free safety or even the strong

    but the dude is a special receiver

    we are in for a treat the next 3 years

    "And Mettenberger connects again to Jarvis Landry for 48 yards. That is Landry's 11th touchdown of the season."

    Doubtful but I'd like to see Loston bulk up and make that move.

    Not a bad idea.

    He could play OLB at the size he is at already.

    Yeah probably so. I'd just wonder how he'd get off of blocks from guys that much bigger than him. I've been a little disappointed about him so far, considering the hype surrounding him. Dude can hit though. Is it just me or has he had more than his fair share of penalties?

    He's the same size as Tahj Jones and 15 lbs lighter than Francois and Hatcher.

    But Hatcher is playing middle at just 15 lbs heavier.

    He could put on 5-10 lbs of muscle and be a dominating OLB if he could pick up the position.

    He would be an elite safety just like Hilliard would be a terror at MLB (I thought he looked better in HS one defense than on offense).
