I think he's gonna get taken before we have a shot. Like him a lot. I like Darius Muasau of UCLA. Plays like Greenlaw to me.

Wilson is my favorite I've seen so far. But I am not a fan of Edgerrin Cooper at all. I immediately saw him fill the wrong gap multiple times on tape, and I have a hard time understanding how he's rated so high despite the mental mistakes.

Payton Wilson, NC State
Darius Muasau, UCLA
Curtis Jacobs, Penn State
The latter here has some pretty nice tape. They seem to use him a lot like BYU did with Fred Warner. We love coverage linebackers that can tackle. I like this kid in the 3rd and beyond.

Payton Wilson is a walking trauma ward. I think he's up to like 14 surgeries including high school and college. Incredible talent but I don't expect him to make it past his rookie deal.

wow.. had no idea about the injury history.. Sorry.. I'm out then. We need a durable guy with talent. That makes me even more down on this class..

2 torn ACL's, busted up shoulder, hamstring issues, back issues, he might very well be worth a late round flyer if his medicals cause him to drop because he is phenomenally talented.

#TAMU LB Edgerrin Cooper has a lean frame but has excellent range and closing speed working in space. His speed to the football and reactionary instincts makes him easy to like.

I think he's a more natural fit as a SAM backer but wouldn't mind him as a WILL either. pic.twitter.com/p1TRk6I7f1

Jeremiah Trotter Jr does a good job of blowing this play up even if he isn't credited with the tackle. Good dip to get around the pulling guard and then shoulders back into the TE blowing up the block. The guard falling from the dip causes the pile-up to start. pic.twitter.com/IKakQA8pLV

#Clemson LB Jeremiah Trotter Jr. continues to get more and more comfortable in this Tigers defense, adding three more tackles and this interception, getting underneath a seam route.

It was the Philly native's first interception of his career, momentum shifted as well. pic.twitter.com/fKUgwGFEK0

Didn't think we had a shot at him. Looks like maybe he falls to the 2nd due to size. We'll see after combine. Great prospect though.
