He is a tough one to place. The safety positions are going to be very competitive...does he really stand a chance there? Our WRs are deep...would he get sufficient playing time there? Our LBs are pretty good...this is probably his best shot at playing time (at least on defense), but is that really where he belongs?
Honestly, I don't really see a problem with him moving to TE (if he would really end up there). Byham would be the starter, obviously. But Dickerson could see a lot of quality playing time there, and he could really contribute. He bulked up last year for LB, so he should be able to handle the blocking aspect. His hands and speed are pretty good, so he could line up in the slot. Basically, he is a good offensive weapon, and TE might be the spot most open for him.
Remember, the TE position is very versatile nowadays. Successful TEs in today's game are athletes, not just big, slow blockers.
