What about Loston playing linebacker and let him rush th qb.

(no message)

But he was a preseason All American

Considering Chavis' predilection to convert dbs into linebackers, it should be safe to say that if he hasn't done it yet, he didn't think it was a good idea to move Loston... at least not as good an idea as keeping him at safety.

You can ascribe the "why" in numerous ways...
- maybe didn't think Loston would be a good LB.
- maybe he thought Loston would be a better safety.
- maybe he thought we were thin at safety and would rather keep Loston there for depth. (I say depth even though he's the starter, because moving him would obviously press someone else into service at his spot, at which time the question would become who backs up that person.)

I agree he needs to play in the box and put Ricky Jefferson in his safety spot. We need a run stopper that can make a tackle at the line if scrimmage. I would do it. in a heartbeat. Also put Beckeith at outside lb.

Last I heard Loston was approached about playing that hybrid linebacker position a couple years ago and he declined the move.

This board has gone full tard.

yes, put him in a position he's never played, and have him blitz every down.

they'll never see it coming

I think compared to previous years, Loston has gotten soft this year.
