2018 NFL Draft rankings: Everything to know about LBs

Yep. It's why I have said all along I feel his best positional fit is WILL in a 4-3, where he can chase. But that's something that you get a LOT of options in filling nowadays, with a lot of guys who can chase coming out in every draft. So from a supply and demand perspective it makes me think he's going to go lower than draft estimates (i.e. somewhere from 15 to 45). And why I think at some point we'll see him listed as a guy who is "falling."

He can play Mike in today's NFL and be damn good, but he's not Superman. He has flaws.

Off the top....Lorenzo Carter....OLB......and the ILB from Texas.....

If I could choose any...I'd get the dude at Va Tech (I'd grab his brother too)....and....probably still grab Carter...I think Carter is gonna be a steal.

I agree that Carter is going to be a better pro than collegiate player. Question really is what they think of Landry which means if he aced his background stuff and team interview he will need to be gone before the Rams consider Carter. Because he's more polished on the rush. But down the road... I am convinced Lorenzo Carter will be a force for some lucky team in this league, especially if he ends up under a staff like ours.

WRT the ILB position... I don't see Malik being considered unless both Vander Esch and Evans are off the board. Both are much better than him, there's a lot of dropoff to my eye at least. But if the Rams move down then yeah he should be right there with a lot of other guys who would be need/value fits.
