Plus, that takes away from his athleticsm. For all the bashing, the guy ran a similar 40 to Terrell Suggs. He also had a 4.31 20 yard shuttle, which shows good explosion and change of direction.
I can't wait to see him in this defense.
I may be completely wrong. But, I call it like I see it, and I think that Hali will be a good fit in the new defense.

Agreed almost 100%.
He can't play DE in the 3-4, he's not good at taking on blockers head on. He's not just too light, he's short too.
Forget the 40 and look at the shuttle time. He can close on the ball and that's enough to make him a servicable OLB for situational duty.
I'm not gonna go as far as to say he will be "good" but I don't think he's a lock to get cut like so many think he is.
