Neville Hewitt article

I was actually reading this same article myself once I found out he had made the team (had no idea about the guy)....they definitely make him sound interesting.
 
Why didn't NE sign him or draft him?
He looks great on film. He could be a guy we could use on 3rd down instead of the extra DB, but with ability to stop a run or a screen pass.
I like it.
 
I saw him out of position a few times in preseason and thought he was toast. Might be number 53 in the roster.
 
Sounds like he was raw and not ready to play the position.

Pats demand a lot of there linebackers, which is why they drafted linebackers in the 1st rnd 3 straight years in a row.

And Miami prefers 7th rouders enrolled in Vet school and UDFA's. Occasionally we splurge with a 5th, maybe a 4th rounder.
 
I must confess that I was overly wary based on his light weight. I didn't realize that he is a hybrid LB/Safety. The added flexibility is appealing. There were lots of good reports about the 4 undrafted LBs at Training Camp but Neville Hewitt is the one who flew most under the radar.
 
Good thing Ireland wasn't around to interview him.

He'd never have made the 53.

He made the final roster? Wow
 
If Hewitt played a hybrid safety, I'm guessing he is ok in coverage.

But not to be a party pooper, but Hewitt's background is similar to more than 50% of all NFL players.
