So I ran into several battles during recruiting and took on four AC signings. This left me with just six defensive linemen (not counting a scrub) for the season. Average STA is 60.16 and I run the 4-3/ Nickle exclusively.

I have six solid LBs. I know I could go the distance with five if necessary, though an average STA of 46.6 would be pushing it.

The question is should I move my freshman LB Timothy Wong to DL? As it is, he is the #3 GUESS backer in his class, but I also have the #4 LB. He would be fine, though not outstanding, at his new position.

Here is my current Defensive Line

Angel Hardy	Sr.	DL		76	34	74	49	64	88	30	91	32	69	61	80	748
Raymond Carpenter	Sr.	DL		65	45	53	41	69	89	22	91	35	75	44	63	692
Herman Flanagan	Jr.	DL		65	37	52	58	53	84	44	91	41	76	65	63	729
Robert Walter	So.	DL		46	41	52	41	69	91	46	88	20	68	77	46	685
Samuel Barry	So.	DL		62	36	52	40	65	89	32	87	29	69	54	57	672
George Wilson	Fr.	DL		49	37	38	51	41	83	41	86	19	76	56	57	634

And here is my current crop of linebackers

Ronald Porter	Sr.	LB		87	65	43	45	42	83	32	89	52	73	76	54	741
Jerry Simmons	Jr.	LB		75	60	68	48	57	80	20	84	50	76	79	70	767
Charles Harmon	So.	LB		74	70	55	49	39	76	15	88	37	68	79	65	715
James Armstrong	So.	LB		72	58	45	33	56	76	20	91	41	73	73	46	684
Timothy Wong	Fr.	LB		60	67	42	43	43	79	34	90	41	53	64	71	687
Frank Durham	Fr.	LB		50	45	48	40	61	39	29	56	36	48	53	51	556
Russell Benson	Fr.	LB		61	69	56	51	39	82	27	70	47	72	62	59	695

And here are their GUESS rankings http://guess.gdreports.com/srating/summary?division=2&school=191&season=130&world=2

As a DL, Wong would have the following numbers
ATH 60
SPD 90
DUR 42
WE 34
STA 43
STR 79
BLK 10
TKL 76
HND 49
GI 45
ELU 65
TEQ 60

His overall, personalized, GUESS rating as a DL would be 71.54 DE, 70.10 DT

Should I make the switch or will I be fine as I am (keeping Wong at LB)?

I think you'd be fine sticking with just the 6 DL for this season. I run the 4-3 exclusively, and usually go with 7 DL and 6 LB. Your defensive linemen are good enough to handle this season IMO.

Would you be able to RS one of your linebackers if you don't move him? If you can, then I would definitely leave Wong at LB and RS one of them.

I could redshirt one of them and that would help me return to a 1-2-1-2 class balance, as well.
