Because he gets himself CRUSHED. And has since his Freshman year. You try to make a volume player out of him and you'll get him for 7 games, IMO.
The guy just doesn't know how to take a hit. That's what worries me most about his long-term NFL prospects. He's going to get lit up a bunch at the next level and yeah, he's a physical guy, but can he really keep subjecting himself to that kind of impact? He just plays so violently.

And he did have some great "gotta have it" moments, but they were too infrequent. Like you I am not sure of his ability to take the hits in the NFL...and he sure as hell needs to squash his ability to get taken out of his game by someone getting inside his head.
