Height: 6-0. Weight: 229.
Projected 40 Time: 4.67.
Projected Round (2010): 4-5.
1/8/10: An All-ACC Second Team member, Darryl Sharpton collected 106 tackles and 8.5 TFL.

2/19/09: Unlike last year, Darryl Sharpton stayed healthy all year. He had 58 tackles, six TFL and 1.5 sacks.

5/11/08: Struggled with injuries in 2007 and looked out of place when he returned to the lineup.

2007: Darryl Sharpton, who was moved into the starting lineup as a freshman, maintains incredible speed at his size. If he can run in the 4.4s at the Combine, he'll skyrocket even further up this chart.

Miami’s linebacker Darryl Sharpton. His speed is remarkable and today he impressed me by doing something I didn’t know he could really do: rush the quarterback. He did a nice job varying swims and rips to beat blockers. He reacts quickly and played well in coverage.

The only thing is didn't we draft Hodge and Jason Williams - aren't both very athletic guys who could maybe play nickel LB? It would seem to me as though this guy is too small to be a full-time ILB in our scheme.
