    Compare Kirksey to Borland, who a lot of us had discussions about:

    and compare him to Shazier, who was a high first round pick:

    http://www.nfl.com/draft/2014/profiles/ryan-shazier?id=2543486


    and, interestingly, Kirkey is similar in size to Shazier...


    Kirksey


    6'2

    32 3/8 arm length

    233 lbs

    36" vertical

    4.59 forty



    Shazier


    6'1"

    32 3/8 arm length

    237 lbs

    42" vertical

    4.38 forty

            This is the one pick in this draft that I've been iffy about. Thanks for posting these articles, as it gives me a chance to fill in some blanks.

              Shazier has a 42 in vert?! Good lord! They are not athletically in the same breath but im betting shazier has a couple of years before he is a good lb. He didnt seem to have the best instincts at OSU. Freak athlete tho. Kirksey has better anticipation and football instincts right now.
