imo it would just be a waste

the bengals played maualuga at OLB his rookie year, that was a waste, and now hes their MLB and while that maximizes his talent in a 43, hed still be better off in a 34 imo

I see Hightower as a better fit for the Steelers. Better football IQ.

Saw this dude play in three games this year and you really can't appreciate what a disruptive one-man force he is. When the ball snaps he's like an uncaged animal looking to kill the first thing in his sights. Teams would game plan their offense to move away from him. But then he's take out the two lead blockers and blows the play up. Then he'd take off his helmet, beat his chest and get flagged.
Any team needing a linebacker would be nuts not to take him. Instant impact. And for his brain-dead antics, it's just part of the package. A mentor.......right.

hes more versatile in that he can play DE on passing downs or OLB in a pinch but taze and timmons would compliment each other perfectly. harrison, woodley, timmons, burfict....just a boner of a LB corps

He is immature, but u gotta believe NFL coaches can help him focus that fire he has in his gameplay & leadership skills. Then we're talking about another Ray Lewis.

Honestly, and obviously given proper development, I don't disagree with that comparison.
