I love Rian Davis' tape. And I think he can play LB. If you watch him, he moves really well in space, he identifies the play quickly and is very fast to the ball. I'm not saying he won't move to DE, because that's certainly possible. However, I try not to insist on certain size parameters for every position. I think a 210 pound LB can play at Miami and I think a 245 pound LB can play at Miami. More important than weight is the skills for the position, which I think Davis has in spades.
Exactly. Th eguy doesnt move like he is 230+. There isnt a lot of wasted movement or stiffness. I think he is a lB here if they want him there. Hes built similar to Mccloud. IFrom watching the highlight film, you can see him diagnose a play at LB and get to it..RIGHT NOW. The 2nd or 3rd play he actually sifts through traffic extremely well and closes on the ball carrier. I think he can be a SAM or MIke here...and a good one.
