I think he could be a nice little player in the Sorenson mold that could save us some money. He may be too much of a LB/S hybrid but not really either to use a resource on though.

Sticking with the Huskies, there are two guys I really like that will be around in the later rounds.

The first is TE Drew Sample. An excellent blocker who also has good hands. He's basically a clone of Will Dissly who was having a great season with the Seahawks last year before getting injured. Sample had a great Senior Bowl and I saw several quotes saying he was the best TE there. Most of the projections have him going in the 4th

My favorite Husky to watch over the last couple of seasons has been MLB Ben Burr-Kirven. The guy is an absolute tackling machine who quickly diagnoses plays and can get through the blockers to blow up plays. He is also excellent in coverage. Here's a good article about his play.

The main problem with BBK, and what drops him down, is his size. He's 6'1", 222 lbs so some have him as a hybrid safety/LB but he is basically the same size as Deion Jones, who plays LB in the 4-3 Under in Atlanta, so I don't know if it will really be a problem.
