Posluzny won't be riding the bench for anybody that picks him. That's the point. The guy is a football player. He's a leader. And he's a damn fine linebacker. I'd be very surprised if he wasn't starting for the team that picks him at some point in his rookie season.
That said, most rookies play a backup role for the first couple years. Finding someone to contribute right away (ala, Hali, Allen, DJ) is not the norm. That's why a guy like Posluzny would only enhance the future prospects of our young but promising defense even more.
