I like Ingram but I like Jarvis Jones, Georgia too... This guy lead the SEC in sacks!

Melvin Ingram, DE, South Carolina
Height: 6-4. Weight: 276.
Projected 40 Time: 4.75.
40 Time: 4.82 40 Low:4.72 40 High: 4.94
to slow IMO |

I'm not worried about those projections, he will test out better and his shuttle and cone drill numbers will be off the charts for a guy his size

He will play around 265 which is on par with Ware or most OLB's in a 3-4

+1 Give me the guy that ALREADY PLAYS OLB in a 3-4 (and plays it very well to boot) versus the guy that has to transition from playing DE to OLB. Upshaw is a Lamar Woodley clone in every way. Just give me any of the top tier guys off of 'Bama's D (Upshaw, Kirpatrick, Hightower, Barron, Chapman). |

If there is one thing I absolutely cannot stand in regards to evaluating a prospect, it is a 40 yard dash time. When a OLB/DE prospect has to run 40 yards, in a straight line, with some Under Armour tights on, then it may mean something.
LaMarr Woodley - 4.75
Tamba Hali - 4.87
Terrell Suggs - 4.84
James Harrison - 4.85
You get the idea. |
