6'4" and 240 pounds would be a very light defensive end in the NFL. Glad to see he's willing to move to another position, a decision that sometimes plagues the professional future on some athletes...

Hunter Willing to Play Linebacker

At 6-foot-4, 240-pounds, Jason Hunter is the prototypical size for an NFL linebacker. Hunter also has excellent speed and can hit like a freight train.

So what’s the problem? Well, it’s that Hunter spent his college career at Appalachian State playing defensive end.

Yet Hunter does not care which position he plays if one of the 32 NFL teams gives him a chance to attend a training camp. Hunter, like thousands of college seniors wanting to play professional football, will be waiting by the phone hoping one of those teams calls saying it has drafted him.

“I have expectations,” Hunter said. “It would be nice to be drafted. (Playing in the NFL) is something I am looking forward to if I get the opportunity to be drafted.”
