Potential OLB's Via Draft

[KD]

Does anyone see any OLB that fit the BP 3-4 mold in this years draft?

It looks like the undersized DE's have better potential to play the OLB position in the 3-4 because of their height, weight and in some cases speed over the OLB's in this years NFL draft crop.

Bunches of them.

I hope and pray Manny will fall to us.

Bobby Carpenter has BP written all over him. I mean ALL OVER HIM.

I like Chris Gocong in the middle rounds as added depth/potential future starter. (see sig)

That's their current mock draft which has him going in round 2. Guess I'll have to wait for the Goose to come out with his ranking before we know how NFL scouts really view him.

I'll just tell you, the most impressive thing to me about Manny Lawson isn't the great workout numbers. I'm more impressed by the fact that he was voted most valuable player on the defense and best defensive lineman on his team by his peers. That's significant to me because a guy named Mario Williams played on the other side...His lack of bulk does concern me some though...

Kamerion Wimbley is a guy that I have been very high on. He impressed me at the combine too. He's a great character kind of guy too. People have talked about a previous injury, but I haven't seen the effects of it. Meanwhile, some of the same people are all for Bobby Carpenter, who has had his fair share of injuries.

Bobby Carpernter wouldn't hurt my feelings either though. His dad played for Parcells, and Bobby has been a great competitor and leader too. He also has more true linebacker skills that may be needed.

Mark Anderson is another guy I like.

Basically, the list goes on and on. If you like those tweeners, this is a great draft class to find them - including a couple of Syracuse kids who might not mind being reunited with their old college coach and the guy who recruited them.

I like Gocong as well. But I view him as more of an ILB in a 3-4 than anything. He has the size and range to be great at it. I he's relentless enough to do the blitz from the middle thing (which is more about timing and patience than pass rush skills).
