McLaurin will be in the Matt Wells position soon.
You could be right but I'm not sure that is still a position. Diaz didn't use it the last time he was here so I'm not sure he does this time either. I think Wells was just one of the guys they had to get on the field, more of a position to fit the player than vise versa.
I'm thinking that a more comparable lineup to this year would be Green to KJ, R Brown to Chris White, and B Brown to Cameron Lawrence. Of course that does leave JT Gray in question, so I don't know.
ETA: Just checked the roster and JT is listed at 196 lbs, so it looks like he's out of the picture at that OLB slot. I'm thinking the Matt Wells hybrid position was a Collins thing.
ETA2: Well shite, he's still listed as LB. Not sure what to think about that, he isn't playing as an SEC LB at under 200 pounds. Jung is listed in the 220's though and Jackson, -*shiver*, is in the 210's. Who the hell knows.

I think against spread teams, you have to have that position. You need a linebacker that can play the run but keep up with receivers. Jung is that guy. Maybe Gray, but the kid needs to put on some weight if he's going to stay there.
I want to see Jung, Brown and Brown.

Just thinking about KJ, Chris, and Cameron. It is easy to forget what kind of wheels those guys had. By the Michigan game, they were running everything down.

Would seem we need Safety help more than LB help. If there isn't a Matt Wells type role at LB anymore it would seem logical that JT Gray would be looked at for a Safety position. I thought that was the position he was recruited for anyway.
