He's never really done that in college (he's been able to run around blockers) but playing inside in a 3-4 , isn't going to give him room to run around blockers, he's actually going to have to beat them. That's something that a lot of guys never get. It's not just about size (most of the blockers are going to be bigger than him matter what), it's about physicality and technique.I'd be ok with Shazier as a trade down in the high second round but I'm pretty sure that he won't make it past the Broncos at 31 so I'm doubtful we'll ever find out if he can make the transition to inside backer.</blockquote>
