Wow! According to the list of new players reporting to fall practice, Gerald Williams is listed at 260lbs. I thought he was 240. I can't see him remaining at linebacker at 260. I bet he is definitely DE bound.

Chavis plays his LB's a lot lighter than most other teams do. Hell South Carolina will start two linebackers this year weighing 270 and 275 pounds and they are even a few inches shorter than G Williams. While that is a little bit heavier than normal both of those guys are still pretty good LB's, especially Brinkley. You have to remember Gerald Williams is 6'4 so 260 pounds is not too much on that frame to play MLB in my opinion. I think it would be nice to have a big guy in the middle again...
