his size makes it RB, G or KR in my book depending on physical caps.

kicker if his con is good.

Is there an obvious advantage for linemen being tall? Perhaps for defensive linemen there would be a chance to leap up and deflect a pass if they see it, but I could see short linemen getting around blocks easier, and even blocking better, if they use cut blocks often, say. I'm not sure if any of this applies to grid-iron whatsoever, or indeed if height is anything but another nice number to look at when you're bored.
Bearing all this in mind, I wouldn't personally have qualms about keeping him as an offensive lineman, save for the waste of his 20 intelligence.

where have you read that intelligence is definitely a waste on OL?

However, I'd bet it would be put to better use in a position such as safety, quarterback or linebacker. IRL I'd want the centre, and the two offensive tackles, to have good decision making skills when it comes to making choices about who to block, or when to take the snap. I sincerely doubt the GI game engine is anywhere near that level of sophistication.

good point, I would must likely use him as a guard, considering the complex pulling patterns they do, then on defense I would use him as a SS to take advantage of his intelligence

Maybe I'm too pessimistic, but it's been a year (3 seasons) since height and weight were added and the announcement of the forthcoming new engine was made, so I don't see the need to cut players solely based on their height. It may come back to bite me some day, but I don't even pay attention to height anymore.
