Yeah I would still draft him day 3, just teams aren't gonna risk it in day 2 despite the stats. Sucks as I had him targeted for my IDP fantasy league

Someone is getting a steal sure he isn't the fastest cover LB there is. But he is a sure tackler and sheds blocks like he's got butter all over him. 

I wouldn't have him out there covering. I'd have him downhill going after the RB and QB.
Perhaps for his skill set he isn't an early round guy. But I still think that when he plays on Sundays people are gonna see that he was undervalued due to a lack of speed. Which is the only knock on him.
Also I've seen that 4.95 is his slowest 40 but he's also ran it at 4.75 which still isn't real fast but still. Those 40s don't mean THAT much and everyone knows it lol. Closing speed matters. Play recognition. Angles.

I think he'll be a stud and if he's selected as late as round 6.... man... that's a steal to me.
