Dude was a monster at Michigan who's best asset was as a penetrating UT at 6'-6" 338 lbs. Very similar traits to Marcus Thomas and Nick Fairley. Perfect fit if we switch back to the 4-3defense IMO.
I'll admit he hasn't shown much as a pro. But, he's still young and maybe a change of scenery will do him good.
I'd also like for the team to keep Thomas and Vickerson. Jettison the remainder of the DLmen unless they plan to switch between the 3-4 & 4-3.
