If we had Ngata at nose tackle, he might be an effective starter, with Tank Tyler as the nose, he is a target.
He needs to get healthy and show he is gonna work hard enough to earn not only earn a starting job, but that his work ethic shows he is worth investing a new contract and a few more years on the field in red, otherwise we are best off spending that developmental playing time on a player that deserves it and gives us consistancy.

Somewhat accurate. You have one ILB who is more of a run-stuffer, and another who tends to be more of your coverage guy. It just so happens that he and Demorrio Williams are essentially fighting to play the same position.
