Senior Bowl: Baylor's Watkins, Texas A&M's Miller the stars of week

Watkins is 26 years old. He's not going in the first round. Reed could someday be a Chief but he's likely to be a 3rd rounder which would be good value. Given the uncertainty of the CBA and the fact Weigman is old and a FA and Edwards is old and a FA, I think the lst round pick of the Chief's isn't on this list. I'm guessing NT Taylor out of Baylor or C Wisniewski.

Miller appears to be the class of this years 3-4 edge rushers, maybe in a "class by himself". However there's one very large question-mark about him: is he a 3-down guy ?
I've seen him play (on TV, not in person) a couple times this past season, and I was doubtful he'd weigh in the 240s as he was listed on the Aggie roster and he didn't as he came in at 237 at the Senior-Bowl weigh-in and that's very light for an NFL OLB, especially in the 3-4. Bulk him up when he gets in the league ? Well then you might compromise his greatest asset which
is his quickness/burst off of the edge ?
