Kind of a weird landing spot for him.  He's shown the potential to be a player, but i thought he'd find a spot where he can play more of a 3-4 rush LBer role.  That seems like his best bet for success.

That's basically what he'll do in the Leo role for us

Sort of, but not exactly.  Even out wider like that with a "go get the QB" assignment, it's not quite the same look as a true stand-up rusher.  Just seems weird, in that he didn't seem to find the greatest groove in a pretty similar defense with the Chargers.  Coming out of the draft, i thought he was a really intriguing LEO prospect for the Jags, really liked him.  At worst, in that sort of Bruce Irvin LEO/SAM split role sort of thing.  Hasn't seemed to work out all that great for him though.  Just would've thought he'd want to find a fit where he can try the whole stand up thing again.
