13. Channing Crowder, LB, 6’2â€Â, 244 lbs, Florida – I like Crowder more than most do. Sure, he has had his off the field troubles in the past, but there isn’t a more instinctive linebacker in this draft. This guy seemed to make every tackle for the Florida defense this year, and he plays with an aggression that makes me think of Ray Lewis when I watch him play. Draft this guy, and he will be your middle linebacker for years to come.
This is what I said about Crowder when I wrote my top 32 list for this site.
IMO, two of the biggest sleepers in this draft are two players with knee problems. Channing Crowder and Frank Gore are fantastic picks in the third round, IMO. The upside for both is tremendous.
