Total exaggeration by fans, everything we've heard here was about his attitude, not his talent, the same issue popped up in Miami. Heck Solomon Thomas in SF was the 3rd overall pick and cant get his 5th year option picked up.
Almost every scout had him going in the first . it shows how much the draft is a crap shoot
"If you were watching the Michigan-Ohio State game, you might've noticed Charlton's game-wrecking ability (2.5 sacks)," McShay said. "He was Michigan's best pass-rusher this season (nine sacks in 10 games). He has the versatility to convert to a 3-4 OLB in the Steelers' base defense.
Jarvis Jones and
James Harrison are both set to be free agents."
McShay's so bullish on Charlton's ability, that in his first mock draft of the year, he has Charlton slated to the mid-to-late first round -- joining teammates
Jabrill Peppers and
Jourdan Lewis as Wolverines to be
selected on the first day of the NFL Draft.
Attributing his meteoric rise to his newfound proficiency in technique, McShay says that Charlton's talent has always been there, but in utilizing that which defensive line coach
Greg Mattison has been professing, Charlton has an opportunity to be a true star at the next level.
"Charlton finished the season on a tear, compiling 10 sacks in his final 10 games," McShay said. "He has always had the raw ability, but this season, he showed more consistency and refined technique. Charlton has the ability to be an edge defender in either a 3-4 or 4-3 scheme in the NFL."
