I don't doubt it.

But like I said, a 220 lb small-school safety is no slam dunk to make the conversion to LBer at the next level.

People fall in love with the Brian Urlacher story and he's the benchmark for college safety conversions, but that dude weighed 250 lbs in college.

There are a LOT more examples of oversized safeties/undersized linebackers simply never finding a role. A lot more of these guys become Dorian O'Daniel or Taylor Mays. If you're lucky.

I won't argue loudly with those that like him - I see why they do. He's just not my thing.
