I haven't really heard of any good comparisons to him. Maybe a young/healthy Julian Peterson?

Peterson is a good comp. Maybe Urlacher due to his size, speed and versatility.

I'm just curious to see how 3-4 teams view him.

Historic numbers I found for comparison:

Curry 6'2" 254lbs 4.56 in the 40
Demarcus Ware 6'4" 250lbs 4.56 in the 40
Suggs 6'3" 257lbs 4.65 in the 40

He appears to be a superior athlete like those two no doubt. He was never asked to rush the passer like they were, so it's tough to make that comparison at this point.

I was bringing it up since some people were saying he wasn't big enough to play OLB in a 3-4. I wonder what his arm length is. If KC brings him in for an interview/workout and he is able to demonstrate pass rush skills I don't think Pioli will pass him up.

But on the other hand, he excelled in a 4-3 scheme, so he may be a perfect fit if we plan on running a hybrid defense that alternates between the two schemes.

Suggs and Ware were both DE's in college so they had pass rush moves...

And I still don't see Curry as a significantly better prospect than Cushing.

Of course you don't. Curry is better and more athletic than Cushing. Plus Cushing has a history of injuries that would make Brody Croyle blush.

Considering Cushing has never had a "serious" injury that's hilarious, breaking your hand, spraining your ankle don't compare to 2 blown out knees and a blown shoulder.

"Has struggled with injuries throughout his career, missing five games due to a shoulder separation in 2005 and three games in 2007 due to a high ankle sprain, as well as undergoing surgery after the 2006 (shoulder) and 2007 (knee) spring practices"

Just the type of player I want to gamble a first round pick on.

Sure, he's tough. He also gets banged up easily and has had two surgeries on key parts of his body. Once he's drafted and the NFL starts testing he might not recover as quickly (if you believe the rumors he's juiced).

Uh no I didn't tout him at 3, I said I don't think Curry is an eons better prospect which is why I don't think he's worth 3.

That's a nice misinterpretation though, you're great at that.
