How to use Rasco?

If LSU gets Rasco on NSD does he get looked at as a linebacker or is he strictly a defensive end?
According to Scout he is 6'3" 250, which is great size, and runs a 4.6 40. After watching some film on him I noticed that he uses his hands really well and seems to shed off blockers rather quickly, which is a must to play linebacker. He is also a very aggressive and "downhill" type football player who seems to always find the ball. I think he would make a great MLB prospect and, with Sheppard leaving and the depth we have at DE, I wonder if the coaches will consider this. I don't know if he played some linebacker in high school, so I don't know how well he can play in pass coverage, but a MLB should never have to drop back more than 10 yards.
I just want to get everyone's opinion on this and also information on how well he would do at linebacker from people who have seen him play live a few times. I am not a coach but I did play linebacker in college and I think it would be a good idea to consider.
P.S. this is my first post so take it easy, Geaux Tigers!

If he has the hips to cover I'm all for trying him out at LB. However, you can NEVER have too many pass rushers.

I have wondered this myself, since the Tigers seem to have far more depth at DL and the need is much greater at LB. From what anyone knows, does Rasco insist on playing defensive end or is he willing to play linebacker?

But it does happen. I like the idea of him at the Mike tbh.

Rasco has said he would like to play DE. It was the same with the Jones brother who changed his name to something like Rehim Alem. He made 15 takles as a MLB in the TX vs LA all-star game but chose to play DE at LSU.
