Three really good mid-rounders, and three I hate.

DE/OLB/ILB? Adrian Hubbard, Alabama -- If you're drafting Hubbard, it's for his physical promise more than it is for his on field production. Hubbard is a very long linebacker (6'5") with fascinating measurables. Alabama asked him to put his hand in the ground, asked him to stand up and rush, asked him to drop -- he is a prime candidate for the 3-4 OLB. However, he could also work in as a DE in the 4-3, though a bit undersized. He needs work on all faucets of his game, really, particularly his coverage, but his great athleticism assures me that he could not only be a really interesting late rounder for a 3-4 team looking for OLB depth, he could serve as an ILB as well.
