It will be fun to see how the Chiefs use the players they already have in the new defense.
I don't have any inside information either, it's just some speculation that I've heard a few times from a variety of people, and it goes on that they were planning on having him drop his weight this year (this was before new coaches were hired).

Just for me, I don't think he makes a whole lot of sense as a NT. His game is penetration, that's what got him drafted. I think if his weight is in the 300 range, although he's a little shorter than you'd prefer, he'd be a good fit for end, and flex undertackle for 4-3/nickel.

I'm not even sure we're going 3-4 to be honest. Not until they actually say it.
