He's an outside Linebacker in a 3 - 4

And isn’t going in the first to begin with.

a outside lb in a 3-4, stops the run, drops into coverage and once in awhile blitzes. He can play ILB

So what if he cant pass algebra, he’s 6-2 250 and runs a 4.5 40. he hits like a mack truck and is pretty good in coverage, Thats what you want out of a ILB. His stock will rise.

I'll pass on Ronnell Lewis

he’s not going til 2nd and maybe 3rd … had academic problems and was ineligible for OU’s bowl game – that tells me he’s either not as bright as he needs to be, or not as serious about his work as he needs to be (which in my mind means 3rd round is likely as high as he’s going, and might fall to 4th depending on combine results)

he COULD MAYBE be ILB but seems more suited to OLB

OLB IN a 4-3 really isnt to different than a ILB in 3-4, they are both asked to the same things.

OLB in 4-3 are usually smaller and faster than ILB’s. Lewis has the size of ILB.

Sam in a 4-3 is pretty close to a SILB

Will in a 4-3 is pretty close to a WILB

However I believe ups meant he looks more like a 3-4 OLB prospect, as a rusher than a 3-4 thumper

Let's just draft Hightower in rd 1.

Pick up an RT in round 2.

No thanks

No value in a 3-4 SILB that high, especially one that is not really an athletic freak like Willis. We have other holes that could be filled, Oline/WR if Bowe leaves/CB if Carr leaves/etc
