Much like Michael Johnson was a LB for his first two seasons and even prepared his third season as a LB until DE injuries forced him to be a full time DE.
He's not a great player, but he could have had a lot better Bengals career than he did if they had made him a DE from the word go and let him put on the 20lbs he needed to in order to play the position rather than flip flop him back and forth and make him keep the weight off so he could play LB.
