Vasek Position Change?

[KdDylan]

Anyone heard about Colten Vasek changing positions?

[georgethepunter]

To what? 

[KdDylan]

Maybe LB behind Spence for depth, which makes sense. Not sure if that's true or not.

[TCope111]

Sam LB

[hookem1014]

Good move imo and an easier path to the field for him. Hope health is on his side this season 🤘

[SueVide]

Tall for a LB?!

[Califashorn75]

Deep snapper. 

[ClubWhatever]

You have to be able to change directions to play LB

Not necessarily, but he does lacks speed for LB.

Yep. He’d be buried on the chart at edge.

Might be valuable at LB on obvious rushing situations, he could probably fill gaps solidly once he identifies them.

But hard to see him being able to cover a RB out of the backfield since he probably lacks speed and lateral movement.  A good OC would identify him immediately as a weak link and isolate him on a shifty RB and it would probably not be pretty.

He seems buried at EDGE behind younger guys like Jackson, Zina, maybe Wesley so might as well find a spot he can contribute at in certain situations.

Bad fit IMO

Not his ideal position, but the depth is needed and I think he’d get more chances to see the field there. Perhaps they just cross train him to play sam in certain scenarios.

Yes.  Has to be understood though.

[chennups]

surprised he isn't 2nd string strong side DE behind Lance Jackson over Zina given his size/experience.  

 

who's #2 behind collin simmons?

Orogbo richard wesley is somewhere in there too

They’re shoring up depth at LB.

I don’t think Atkinson is near ready. It’s asking a lot of Cummings at this point physically. Okpala is the only freshman ready to roll.

Where is Okpala ready to roll at? SAM, MONEY, MIKE?

I want CV to get on the field. The kid has had a tough road
