Why draft a Player with HUGE pass rushing skills and use him as a cover LB... why not draft a LB then.

You don't get it because you're a Cowboys fan.
He WILL be pass rushing from both positions this year. Switching him between the positions keeps him on the field for more plays, plus we're deeper on the D-line than LB currently, so he can fill a need while allowing another good DLman to get on the field. He's proven he can play LB, he's fast and I disagree about him looking lost, he did not give up any big plays and was in on a lot of tackles, as well as in the QB's facemask.
By playing him at LB on some plays, we can get more talent on the field besides him and also use his talents the way they should be.
