    Johnathan Hankins- I feel like this is the obvious answer
    Barkevious Mingo
    Taylor Lewan

    Those are the first 3 that popped in to my mind.

    Off the top of my head, it's Geno Smith, Barkevious Mingo, Sam Montgomery.
    Nothing to see here, move along.

    I think Te'o is a little overrated as well. I think he might end up being a little disappointing if he's drafted in the top 5-10 range (which he will be).

    Linebackers that are inside backers don't go high in drafts

    Rabel Rabel Rabel Rabel Rabel Rabel Rabel Rabel Rabel Rabel

    No QB's will be drafted top 15

    Don't you read walterfootball. INSIDE LINEBACKERS DON'T GO THAT HIGH.

    They do now. At least, I think they do. The new rookie wage-scale has thrown the whole draft process for a loop when it comes to positional value.

    I don't see any reason he wouldn't go top 10. I mean he might now but it's just as likely he does as he doesn't from my POV.

    I think he'll go top 10. His college production is enormous. That being said, I just don't know if he's got the lateral quickness of an elite type of LB, which is what he's being marketed as right now.

    Because I've seen mocks with him going in the top 5 and I don't think he should be drafted in the top 5. That and their is other DE's who have better production then him entering the draft. But I haven't seen too much of him to really say that.

    Mingo on the other hand, I've seen play and when he gets shut down he makes stupid penalties.

    Oh fair enough. I thought there was like more to it than that.
