Mario Williams will play OLB in the 3-4

As the Texans convert to new DC Wade Phillips’ 3-4 defense, they’ll need to figure out how their current players fit in.  Perhaps the most important decision is where to use All-Pro Mario Williams.  It was originally believed that Williams would play DE, but beat writer John McClain reports that Houston wants Williams at OLB.  At 6’7 and 290, he’ll be an absolute monster on the outside.  The question is whether he’s quick enough to play the position.  We’re not sure we like the fit.  It’ll be something to monitor this summer.
