    We could just hang on to all his old game tapes. It's worked for us before.

    I saw worley from Ohio st. Is due for a visit. I have had him as an option from early on. He didn't run to well at the combine but he's got range and can cover pretty well. :cool:

    Worley plays plenty fast and can cover downfield. I've watched him do it many times. The Steelers must not think he's too slow if he's in for a visit. They know what he can do. Many guys don't practice they're track meet starts.:cool:

    I am with you Mac I like this kid a ton I have talked about him as a 3-4 round option. Just watch the tape and you can see he can play, there is some real good scouting reports on him as well.

    I watch this team every week. He plays the game faster than his 40 time at the combine. :cool:

    I will say this first I am no expert however when I watch the tape of LVE I don't see much difference between the two. So for me why pick a guy that is similar in round one when you can get just about the same guy in round 3? Everything I read about Worley is how smart he is and to me that means a lot. I am by no means knocking LVE but I just don't see first round on him and I do see potential in Worley. jmo

    I wish they would look hard at Fred Warner too. Leon Jacobs is another. Burks. Avery. Scales. Quite a few good ones to choose from, not in Rd. 1. I'm not sure they are going that route in the first. I think ILB will be day two. :cool:

    I have said in many post that the position is deeper than most think and while there is a drop off I feel guys like Worley, Burks, Leonard, Smith(USC), Cabinda, McCray and Scales can play for us. Of these guys I really like Burks, McCray and Leonard as guys I feel in the 2nd or later could come in and play a lot for us. I like the fact we have Bostic now and who ever we draft does not have to be pushed right in and maybe I am asking to much but maybe Shazier will be able to coach him up as well. I have read Avery's name a lot but I haven't seen him will have to check him out.

    Yeah well Jarvis was slow too, we saw how that worked out didn't we. There are plenty of other LBs in the draft, Oren Burks for one.

    Thing about Fred Warner is that his Pro Day has not happened yet. I would not be surprised if both Tomlin and/or Colbert are there with Jerry to see him.


    Dare I say Warner has the best coverage skills in the draft among linebackers.

    Doesn't matter slow is slow, we just got rid of a slow ILB in Spence. We need guys who can run sideline to sideline to make tackles.

    NT BJ Hill coming in for a visit and NC Safety Stewart. Two guys I like so that was good to see. I like what Hill can do inside, as I stated before he could be the thunder to Gravediggers lightning. Could be a 3rd round target.

    IMO this is a very deep class at DT, I like Hill but there were other guys that really stood out to me. Fatukasi, Jones, Ford & Hall are a few names that I have been impressed with as well.
