Teo had a bad game.....He will be a Kevin Burnett type in the NFL....solid but not a game changer
Not even close to ray lewis I agree and add to his GF dying story and him playing for Notre Dame got him overhyped by ESPN along with what you saidIm no expert on the guy but my 2p in the draft area, great prospect who will be a good NFL linebacker but he has been over hyped partly due to his leadership qualities. Looking at our roster and who will be available at 12 I wouldn't take him with our pick, seems too high. He isnt Ray Lewis... despite what some would have you believe.
That would still be better than what Te'o really should be drafted at. But why are you comparing Te'o to ray lewis in college? They weren't anything a like. Honestly Ray wishes he had hands like Te'oYou do know Ray Lewis wasn't the highest regarded LB to come out right?
Some poeple had mid round grades on him, you would've been saying the same thing about him then as you are about Te'o now.
If Teo is available at 12, he has to be strongly considered. One bad game, when the whole defensive side of the ND team were smashed, should not detirmine wether or not Teo is better than Luke k or not. He has been the best LB in college all year, and will be the 1st lb picked in this years draft. I think he will be top 10, and the Jets the most likely IMO.
Last night's game was a hell of a lot more embarrassing for Zeke Motta and Notre Dame's defensive line than it was for Manti Te'o.
In case you didn't know this isn't the first time I've called how out how overrated he is. Said it weeks ago.I knew this would happen lol. People blast a player after a bad bowl game and praise a player that played good in a bowl game. It's just one game! That doesn't change how they performed all year long.. It's still the same guy.
It happens every single year.
Imo, i'm happy he played bad. Now we actually have a chance to draft this guy. Hope he drops to us.
