How does he not have a designed role? He is an Inside LB, he is the perfect size for that and he he can rush the passer and get in the backfired on run downs.  He has all the tools to play ILB, he is not a tweener or gadget guy. He will play more like Luvu in this system, he is just better. I don't understand why someone would compare him to Chinn and not Luvu. 

I disagree.  He gets pushed back some inside.  He makes plenty of tackles but in the middle there are always a yard or two further back than they should be.  I think he's a pretty good prospect if you look at him as a classic inside linebacker but not near a top 10 guy.  I think the main reason he is considered by some as a top 10 prospect is because of his athletic potential as an edge, but it's mostly all based on potential.
