Zoners: I was thinking how important this 08 Draft is for us

[QT]

I don't agree with him being small for an inside backer in this scheme...I mean how big is Bruschi??? To me it will all come down to toughness, can he be tough enough to play the position...that I am not so sure about.

Sorry, should have elaborated. Small in the sense that it seemed like Carp had no muscle mass coming out of college. I workout often and could tell that Carp had no arm mass. It looked like he had to hit the gym alot once turning pro.

I'm not so sure its a lack of strength, but more a lack of physicality. He's just not a physical player for whatever reason, which is bad news for a 3-4 ILB, even in Wade's system. He just seems to have trouble shedding blocks and finding the ball.
