I don't understand what they're doing with Kaumatule. He's a 280 pound outside linebacker?

I have to agree, and I'm beginning to feel like the coaches (who I am usually pretty hesitant to criticize), really botched his development.  Wasted time at TE, now a OLB with DE size.  I imagine that he will come in on those times when its more of a clear passing down for the offense, as a de facto DE.  And if that is the case, maybe he has a productive spot on the team.  But it just seems his career could have been handled better.

I'm not so sure.  I wonder if he was just a phenomenal all-around athlete who may not have been skilled enough to earn a starting job at any of these positions.
