Outside linebacker...I like the fact that you think outside the box...I hope the coaching staff will look at such ways to maximize potential...Hill has some size, but still a little light for a linebacker. Maybe he could bulk up a bit. Before that, though, I want to see if he is that RB that can push that extra yard when needed. We have not had one of those for a long time. Honestly, I wondered that no one ever talked about using him as a fullback in certain formations. Regardless, I look forward to seeing what he can do next year.

It will be refreshing to watch Derrick Green smash some mouths in the SEC

Do you think that any of the current RB's will switch to LB's?

I could see his best chance to get on the field early maybe at linebacker.

I'm like Ansel Adams ... but in color.

Whatever.
