So much criticism of arm length...for a guy that is going to be a stand up linebacker. I don't get that. I know it's important but people have to realize it's much more important for a D-End than it is an OLB in a 3-4.
And when it comes to "measurables" I think the thing that is being ignored is what he'll test out at the Combine when they put a stopwatch on him.
Remember, he is easily as much a "freak" as Everson Griffen. Easily. I think he was a higher recruit. He ran a 4.43 at 240 lbs back in high school...we're talking about a 17 year old running Patrick Willis numbers at Patrick Willis size.
Apparently, he just plays football based on Senior Bowl. If he fits our scheme and plans, I have no prob with the pick. I think Bill Belichik might though.:tongue2:
I like the pick CK and the analysis about OLB being a problem. I thought it might be NT but then again....good points as usual.
