Definitely don't move Arrington inside. Let him be a threat to rush the passer from the outside and use his ability. If we HAD to move one of them in I think Washington would be a better fit. I really want to keep those guys on the outside.
We need to keep Clemons for 3rd downs to take LaVars spot at LB when he goes to DE. We should look at playing Marshall in the middle.

You never know with Clemon's? he's 6'3" compared to Pierce's 6'1" he is a little light at 234lbs compared to Pierce at 240, but Clemon's has much more speed than Pierce and should be a little bigger this year as well, he came out as a junior so he 's still young, remember we got rid of Trotter because he couldn't cover, speed is more essential at MLB in William's defense than power, case and point Pierce wasen't considered a MLB before the start of the season last year but it was made to work, I think the biggest question about Clemon's is does he have the smart's to play inside I would say right now no, but that can change if William's work's with him at MLB. The other player I hear William's likes is Barnes, at 6'2" and 247 he is very fast he was a WR his sophmore year at missouri, he didn't move to LB until his junior year, [I read somewhere but can't find it] that William's really likes this kid. If none of these guy's pan out I am sure we will have no prob. finding a MLB as good or better than Pierce in the draft, plus we do still have Barrow who I believe will be ready to go this season to hold down the fort until 1 of the youngster's are ready to step up. I would not be panicking right now about the MLB position WE WILL BE FINE!
