From what I hear he is supposed to be like another Julius Peppers. If there is any truth at all to this, we better sign him quick.

We might need ti give him a better nickname though. Something about "Kiwi" just doesn't make me leap out of my seat.

He looked pretty good. Hopefully he will be considered.

not a bad game.

Stats : 7 Tackles, 2 sacks, 1 Forced Fumble and a pass deflection.

However, he wasn't that dominant and needs to improve his technique.He relies to much on physical ability alone.Most of the time the quaterback on the opposing team rolled away from his side and there were a couple of screens too his side too.Not a bad game, but I don't think he is worth a first round draft pick in my opinion.

nah... 7 Tackles, 2 sacks, 1 Forced Fumble and a pass deflection isn't worth a first round pick to me neither....

He looked great out there. With his size and wingspan he should be a very good NFL player.

However, he's no Julius Peppers.

According to his scouting report, he is 6-8 and 245 lbs. That's a low weight for his height.

what i mean't was he is not worth a high 1st round pick.Maybe a very late first,middle second round pick.

thats too light for an nfl DE period. needs about another 20 lbs to bump heads with nfl calibur OTs. maybe if he can gain that and not lose a step.....

Wingspan!! I guess his knuckles where dragging on the ground... HE was able to open it up some in the 4th. Low first round pick. Maybe trade down and pick up the Center from Michigan in the second.

At 245, he should be a really tall linebacker.
