Conliffe will be a starter at end, I expect.

Absolutely.At 317 lbs? If he can move laterally...
Maybe in running downs.Absolutely.
Again, you are stuck in 4-3 think. Think of these DEs as DTs. The OLBs are really the ones who set the edge. Think of it as a 5-2 with the ends standing, that is what it is at the most basic level.
And, yes, Eli is more than fast enough. What you should be think both this year and last year is do these 235-250 pound DEs have enough ass to take on a 315 lb SEC OT, the answer to which you saw last year was "not even close".

That is almost every down in the SEC.Maybe in running downs.
So what's the consensus here? Do we still want to string this kid up by his toenails and castrate him?

We wanted him anyway.So what's the consensus here? Do we still want to string this kid up by his toenails and castrate him?
We ran nickel bc we had no linebackers and have 87 DBs.....This is how the D lined up in the spring - obviously it will change for down and distance:
