Big, long frame (6'5", 245 lb.). Athletic (4.66 40, 34" vert, 9'9" broad)
Married, two kids. Team captain.
The problem with Reilly is that he does have the ACL history and will be a 26 year old rookie. The guy will leave it all on the field and can play all four LB positions in a 34 as a three/four down guy. I don't think I'd spend a first rounder on him. If he was there in the third, it would be an easy pick. I like Van Noy a little better, but both are incredibly similar players that would fit extremely well into this defense.
