I think that he would be great there too, but the problem is that for DE are asked to do more athletically than the NT. Also when its passing downs DEs are typically moved to the spot of where 4-3 DTs are on passing downs and rushing the passer. Cofield doesnt have the stamina to be in there every other passing down like Bowen is, per say.
