RT @CBS11BillJones: Telvin follows that up with 4.41, another sizzling 1.53 10 yd split. He should be Cowboys WLB....liked lots at Sr. Bowl

Will he drop to the 2nd? Don't know much about his ranking.

Can't give up on him but can't rely on him either.

 

[The Natural]

He looks pretty light no? Better be getting a hog up front in the first to protect him

 

[Floatyworm]

I think he is gonna end up @ SS....ala Darren Woodson. I love his game tape. But watching him today.....yes he blew up the 40- but his ball skills were just average...so I was kinda disappointed. I can't imagine starting a 218lb WLB.

 

[MonsterD]

I don't know how good his coverage skills are, but 4.52 is plenty of speed for a SS. I think he is being pretty stubborn about being a LB, he was pretty deflective about it when interviewed at the Senior Bowl.

I always thought he was a 3rd rounder..or even 4th-5th.
I'd say late 4th and beyond is now probably out of the question.

I really like him, but I think the 2nd is early at that size. He's a 4-3 WLB, that's pretty much his only role beyond nickel coverage. His size is a concern, but he could bulk up a little bit I think, and if the defense is run properly, he shouldn't be taking on lineman all that often.

Thanks! If he can run and cover in space, he would be a good fit in this scheme. I wish I knew more about him.

Watch some tape...he is all over the field.

it can be done,the super bowl mvp malcolm smith was around that weight when drafted.

 

[Leadbelly]

Felt like he was always late to react and reluctant to take on blockers/get physical. Gets pushed around a lot.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

too light at OLB...listed at 218. if he gains a few pounds, its going to slow him down.

if he can cover a bit, then perhaps a strong saftey

 

[Doomsday101]

Maybe at safety as Dallas did with Woodson who came out of ASU as a OLB and his LB coach at ASU during that time was Lovie Smith.

How is it "giving up"? You could move him to the strong side or middle and shuffle Lee around where needed.

 

[Gaede]

He can play. I'm on board

 

[Doomsday101]

at 6'3" 218 with 4.41 speed, he is no NFL LB. If it is built like a safety and runs like a safety it must be a safety. lol

 

[Alexander]

McClay was talking about speed the other day. Well here you go.

Where do you get tape for college games?
