Honestly, I like the idea of getting a college DE who doesn't really have the measurables for OLB and putting him at ILB. The guy knows how to get around offensive linemen, and could be a very useful option in blitzing. If he can get coverage down, this guy would be a very good Ted LB.
It was Arthur Moats' first game with the Buffalo Bills -- not to mention his first game at inside linebacker -- and it didn't take long for him to look dazed and confused like, well, a rookie.
After a play where he missed a tackle, Moats placed his hands on his hips and glanced around Washington's FedEx Field in frustration.
"There were a couple of plays out there and I was like, 'Man, I'm really lost,'" said Moats, who played defensive end at James Madison. "The game is way faster than in training camp and practices and I was like, 'What in the world?'"
The transition from college defensive end to NFL inside linebacker in the Bills' 3-4 scheme has been challenging for Moats. Whereas the ball carrier is often at arm's reach of a defensive end, linebackers must attack from angles and make tackles in open space.
