I doubt very much that Hali would make it as an OLB. Nope. I just don't see it. As for Dorsey, he's a square peg in a round hole in the 3/4 system. I'm beginning to wonder if we're not looking at some kind of hybrid defense here. Something that allows us to use these players in rotation for now as we migrate our personnel and acquire players that actually fit the 3/4 (assuming, of course, that this whole 3/4 deal is not just more wild ass speculation by members of the media who are grasping at straws for grist).
As for DJ, I remain convinced that he's been coached down. I can't believe that, under the right circumstances, he wouldn't be an impact player. Keep in mind that, over the last several years, we've gone through (as of the last count) about 80 billion linebackers - some of whom have left the Chiefs to become contributors for other teams.
