Mitchell to line up at ILB

It was widely believed that in Buffalo’s new 3-4 system that veteran Kawika Mitchell would line up at inside backer and have free agent signee Andra Davis as his main competition. But with a knack for having good timing on blitzes some thought he could factor into some blitz packages off the edge.

Mitchell however, confirmed that for now he’s an inside backer in response to a question from a fellow tweeter.

Mitchell also said he expects to see Chris Kelsay and Aaron Maybin lining up at outside linebacker with the first unit at the beginning of OTAs.
