Or LB's that can run sideline to sideline in a heartbeat like those guys up in Seattle.

This position is what separated our D from the Seahawks, 49ers and Panthers. Another CB is needed but we need to get faster at this spot

Or Vilma. Too bad the knee didn't hold up.

Kyle Van Noy would have that versatility to be an edge rusher and drop into coverage. That ability to play multiple roles a la Kenny Vaccaro is intriguing.

Kyle's well respected up here, by both BYU and U of U fans, for the way he handled his honor code violations before he even got to college. Typically, players who get busted just walk away. If they're stars they go play somewhere else. He could've gone to other big name programs but he chose to come clean, accept his punishment, a one year suspension, and stay at BYU.

From all accounts I've heard (local press so take it with a grain of salt) he's been a model student since he started at school.
