Bill he seems light for a LB. Can we put 40 lbs on him?

I would rather see Lee and Worley stay at about 6-3 215 (for a year or two), sort of hybrid missiles who can out of nowhere to show up in the backfield at a dead sprint. From all accounts, they are both great athletes. I could see them sprinting down on kickoffs and punts as well.

Where do you think he will play Bill? Safety or LB?

I believe Worley played some LB at GVille too so he has the attitude and aggressiveness to be a force against the run. Either way he is the type of big safety you can bring down in the box to stop the run, something that Meyer was saying ND needed to have against Alabama. I hope he gets to 220 and 6 '4 he would be like Taylor Mays from USC ---had a great college career.

LB with Mitchell and Trey Johnson, man we need Safeties more. Keep him fast and slim, It'd be great to have a hitting machine crushing receivers across the middle.

I doubt Worley will be an early impact guy. At that size, how can he contribute that early. I see him being a Cie Grant type that started at safety and grows into a LB. Perhaps he finds a home at star.
He has great instincts and explodes through the ball carrier. He's a guy I like, but we really need those freak safeties to compete with Bama. However, this is a good upgrade for a unit (safety) that was perhaps the worst last year.

Worley is at 4.5 before his college career begins... Not saying he'll be a 4.2 but you said Taylor ran a 4.2 at the NFL Combine.... So give him 4 years...

Remember that these are young men that grow into themselves. If he has speed and a frame that can carry weight in muscle he can be an excellent LB. The key word is speed. Recruit fast young men and it all takes care of itself!
