There's not much tape to lean on over the last two years, but Deng clearly lacks the body type of an inside linebacker and the play strength of a 3-4 edge. He does, however, possess adequate instincts with rare length/range that could make him worthy of a look as a developmental project at inside linebacker. Putting another 15 to 20 pounds on his slender frame is a must in order to withstand the rigors of the position.
