He looks like a guard trying to play tackle.
The seemingly wierd thing thou is that he is athletic. He can move and has some real athleticism. He looked really good in the running game and would be an asset there. I would try him on the inside and see if he could make a Carl Nicks type of transition.
Wonder why they don't move him to guard, then?
