What position does he play now?
Safety or OLB?

He looks quick coming off the edge and making a sack

I think you continue to keep him in the hybrid role he's in between S and OLB.

Absolute beast the last several games! Always had a lot of talent but our DC is really using him closer to the line of scrimmage

He HAS looked good, but not in coverage. I do not think he is a DB. Unfortunately, we're loaded at LB, but that's where I think he can contribute.

Orgeron can't make up his mind about him, and it's kind of annoying. If he's good, get him on the field.

It looks like we use him when we want the flexibility of our base set or Peso, with maybe a lighter OLB who can drop Into Coverage.

He's looked most comfortable playing LB and drifting into coverage every now and then. He's not great in coverage but competent enough at it to drop back from time to time

I think he should be strong safety.. bring him down the box for extra run support or blitz.

Whatever Aranda is doing with him is working. Kid is a football player, plain and simple. He just needs to be on the field.

Stevens has the skill set and size that the new NFL is turning into.

He just needed experience.

I do fear he is slightly too slow for S. But his performance has gotten better with reps so until proven otherwise I say my fear is unwarranted.

Getting him on the field in every role possible did pay dividends. I never understood why so many griped about that. It's like playing a stud freshman OT at guard and then moving him to OT later. I don't see the issue.

He’s definitely been around the ball a lot more. Seems more confident.

Therefore he should sit out to protect his draft status
