    Boss Bailey

    I have seen this name thrown around a lot here.

    I watched him today for the first time. He didn't really make any plays that stood out, but he still looked pretty good. I missed most of the third quarter though.

    So has anyone seen a lot of him, or do you want him just because he has a cool name?

        He is a LB for U of Georgia. He is Champ Bailey's brother and he actually broke champs vertical leap record at Georgia with a 46" vertical leap. I think Champ had a 42" or something. Pretty amazing. He is good at gettin up to block kicks.

        He is like 6'3 or 6'4 but is light, only 220 or something. He seems to be kind of like a freak, like kearse. Undersized.

        I think he would be exciting, but it sounds like he might go in the first round, especially if he does well at the combine.

        I didn't see much from him last night in the bowl game either though, so who knows.

          He's a big, but light, and fast, athletic OLB for UGA. I believe he was hurt for the Sugar Bowl, but continued to play, as I recall the announcers saying that Bailey came back for his team.

              Led UGA tackles this year with 109 or so, plays on the strong and weak side. Had 5 picks, and 8.5 sacks. So can both blitz and play coverage, and has blocked 3 kick attempts. The guy is a freak.

                I'd love for us to get him, but I really don't think he's going to be available in the mid-2nd round. But you never know, if teams get afraid of him because of his size, he could drop ... and every year there's always a player that seems to drop about 15-20 places below where everyone expected him to go ... maybe we'll luck out and it'll be Bailey this year. Colvin, Bailey and Fletcher really would make for a dominating core of LBs and wouldn't be overly expensive either (if Bailey drops to us, he'd only get mid-2nd round money, which isn't much at all).

                      Bailey is very athletic and makes plays all over the field, but he misses a lot of tackles as well. He is a wild player who frequently gets out of position. He needs to get control of his game if he hopes to make an impact in the NFL. He is a little small, but has great athleticism and speed, so he could play in a system that protects the 'backers and doesn't give them gap responsibilities (like St. Louis, the Jets or Tampa Bay). However, he needs to learn to play under control, otherwise he will make as many bad plays as good ones.
