But more than that, I've seen him play 30+ football games. He's always around the ball, and he was consistently disruptive despite the fact that he had very blah defensive tackles (save for Hood). The dude is a leader. That, combined with production, intelligence, his personality, and his obvious amazing natural gifts makes him, in my opinion, the best 3 down LB prospect since Keith Rivers. Take Curry's measureables and add in Ray Lewis' personality. I wouldn't draft him at #5, but I'd definitely draft him at 8 or later.

They play base on every play before 3rd down. It's so unconscionably stupid I can't quantify it in words. Ultimately, when you play the triple option you need to have gap discipline and you need your defenders to move sideline to sideline while not overpursuing. There were systematic breakdowns across the entirety of the defense that one player could not fix.

The only thing that I think hurts Weatherspoon is his height means some teams will view him as a pure 4-3 OLB which means half the teams in the league won't think that highly of him.

I don't see that as a problem at all.

He might be similar to Mayo but with this years class I'm not sure how high Weatherspoon can go, he's probably a 20's pick no matter what he does.

He's 1 player, the triple option will kill you if 1 guy out of 11 is in the wrong spot.

No. Really. Do you know how to evaluate individual players on the field? Witherspoon always pops. Every game.

He had almost 400 tackles the last 3 years and over 30 TFL the last two. He did anything but disappear.

Sorry it wasn't the Navy game it was the KU game he didn't seem to do much and he most certainly disappeared in the 4th Quarter vs Nebraska infact he was put on his ass on the final touchdown. I'm not saying that he isn't a good player but I do think having him go 8-15 range is a bit of a reach. |
