McShay on his best OLBs

[The Spaz]

ESPN draft analyst Todd McShay provided some of his preferences at OLB in a 3-4 scheme.

First, he had Michigan’s Brandon Graham, followed by Texas’ Sergio Kindle, TCU’s Jerry Hughes and Utah’s Kyle Misi and Ohio State’s Thaddeus Gibson.

“Brandon Graham is as good as you’re going to get in this class,” said McShay. ”Now I don’t classify Derrick Morgan or Jason Pierre-Paul or Everson Griffen in that category of 3-4 outside linebackers. Just Graham’s motor, intensity and toughness… I went back and watch Lamar Woodley’s (Steelers) as a senior coming out and compared it to Brandon Graham and there’s not a big difference.”

Trading down would be our best bet. Outside QB, this is a pretty deep class. I wouldnt mind trading down and picking up an additional 2nd, and 3rd/4th rounder.

Getting Brandon Graham in the first, Terrence Cody and/or Ducasse,Charles Brown in the 2nd would be good.

I think Jerry Hughes is going to be a big sleeper. First round talent imo

He's not really a sleeper anymore as he's slated to go mid to late first round in every mock draft now.

Been saying this for months now.

He has strong side written all over him, such a monster.

Re: McShay on his best OLBs

Is it me or has the list of sure fire 1st rounders grown to about 40 recently? Not sure how to fit 40 people into 32 picks. Bodes well for our 2nd round pick, though.
