Since his knee (ACL high school) seems fine now, he could end up a bargain to the team that takes him. He is athletic, has the measurables, 6'4", 251lb, 34 5/8/" arms, runs a 4.53 40, while his jumps reinforce his knee strength now (39.5", high jump, 10ft 4" long = 124"). He no longer wears the knee brace that he had on for his college career. One of his biggest knocks was that he was slow out of his stance - that matters much less at OLB than DE. There is a whole lot to work with here.

On NFL.com, his grade puts him at #137, right between the Packers comp 4th pick and their 5th (first pick in round 5), but I think he could be a bargain at the top of round four (Packers pick there at #101).

I want to go Landry/LVE/James in rd1 and Sweat in rd2.

Yeah I really wish comparing players to Woodson would die. No one has been close to him for what he could do. Ramsey looks like the closest I can think of.

I don't think Ramsey has that same ball skills, but he's damn good.

The fan club grows.

I mean, I like LVE but no way am I taking him over Harold Landry, Marcus Davenport, Derwin James, or Denzel Ward.  I think it'd have to be one of those situation where the board is obliterated, the Packers move down into that 18-22 range and then take him.

I wouldn't compare James to Woodson, but they would play the same position in the slot.

I agree other than Landry.

However I don't think the board has to be even close to "obliterated" for Ward, Davenport and James to be gone. I think that's better than a 50% chance.

Edmunds.

Think Edmunds and your dreams will come true :)

Edmunds will be gone too IMO.

Yes - I suspect this is true - HOWEVER - if we all join together and hit up the other teams message boards with a HEAVY, CONCENTRATED AND CONSISTENT DOSE of misinformation about Edmunds......we might change the teams selection!!!!!!

Ya think? :)

Davenport is the hardest to peg for me. Out of those names above, I'd put Davenport at the top of the list for biggest "bust" potential. I think Ward, James and LVE are plug-and-play starters from day 1 and Landry is a plug-and-play pass rush specialist from day 1. 

I'd rank those guys 1. James, 2a. Ward, 2b. Landry, 4. LVE, 5. Davenport.

I’m scared of Davenport too. I really think one of Edmunds/Ward and James will be there, Landry and Davenport as well.
