He can play outside or inside.  He seems to have decent closing speed on scrambles and roll-outs.  Doesn't seem to be as clumsy and prone to end up on his keys like Hawk was.  Scouts compared him to Desmond Bishop which I like.  Even if he's not as good as Hawk was 1.)  He's still better than Brad Jones and 2.)  There are better linebackers coming out next year that could make this defense significantly better.Overall I think this was a B- pick, and could end up with a little luck not only being an A+ pick, but the best pick in our whole draft.</blockquote>
