I just don't know if he has the coverage skills needed to be an OLB and/or if his knees will allow him to keep up with receivers when needed to?!
Eh, 267 lbs is a bit light for a 3-4 DE. Those guys run more in the 280-300 range. In 4-3 schemes, they're DT's.

Not that he CAN'T play DE in a 3-4, but at his current weight, I would say OLB.
