They are undersized defensive ends they're trying to make into 3-4 outside linebackers; because it worked with Clay Matthews and they haven't been able to come up with a true 3-4 olb since the shift to the defense in 2009.      They once tried to convert a Pro Bowl 4-3 end Aaron Kampman into a 3-4 olb.        If they have a future as 3-4 lb's it should be on the inside, where their size and power would be most effective and their liabilities in space wouldn't be as exposed. They could also be used as rush ends in subpackages.      Of course, they are both injury prone.       Time is running out on the experiment with both.</blockquote>
