    3rd LB mostly.

    Lewis - Thomas - Hill - Stribling

    Peppers - Gedeon - McCray

    Charlton - Hurst - Glasgow - Wormley

    Or something like that.

    We could go from a traditional 4-3 (kinda) to a 4-2-5 nickel (kinda) without subbing that LB off, cuz it was Jabrill

    If you haven't seen

    .. you really should. His sr season stats aren't what you'd expect, for good reason.

    This should be required viewing for all Browns fans who seem to have forgotten how bad our defense was at setting the edge.

    Kinda important flexibility against a growing number of NFL opponents... with PTG at the top of the list...

    His stats were the topic of discussion this morning on the local sports radio.

    Dude, EVERY PLAY all he did was set the edge to make the runner cut back into the DL. That was his role - and on passing downs first act as if he was going to blitz to require the extra blocker to stay in before dropping into a hook zone in that side of the field. If the radio never brought that up..... you wasted your time because the lack of that information will understandably lead to erroneous conclusions.

    He was simply a fourth LB for UM last year.

    You do realize Alabama's Reuben Foster had.. 2 PD, zero interceptions, and zero forced fumbles all of last season, right?

    Baseball has a designated hitter and now the Browns do too. His job will be unexpected disruptor from various spots on the field.

    So that's worth a first round pick?

    I'll take some of that... I'm already up one beer on Mud...

    1st play first Defensive series? No... but without a rostered, 3-down LOLB... at least that I can see, I think he'll draw an LB-hybrid role early and often.

    Only way I can see losing a bet on that is if Gregg finds a better candidate.

    Outside of Braylon Edwards and Derrick Alexander, Michigan has given us lunch pal guys to admire like Safety Thom Darden, Center Steve Everitt, RB Leroy Hoard and even FB/H-Back Aaron Shea.

    Mike Mayock (who was raised by a high school football coach) before he got drafted as a DB - has a lot of knowledge of DBs and what they show on film. I trust why he rated Peppers #1. And like Jon Gruden said, it doesn't hurt to have experience at S, CB and LBer when heading to the NFL because of all the different schemes he'll face from week to week.1 week he may see a lot of double tight; another he may see a lot more spread, another week he may face a great run team so the more ways he can defend people (as used by Harbaugh's staff) - the more intriguing he gets. In 2016, he had 15 tackles for a loss and we've seen some of these that were fun to watch.

    While Jalapeno Peppers might not warm everyone's groin in Ohio - I get the feeling he changed Gregg Williams' football wood factor from balsa to sequoia.

    I welcome the only Defensive Coordinator to earn a Superbowl Ring in New Orleans while understanding Revenge of the Nerds is a sequel. "Come get some!"

    But if "m" is so good why can't they beat The OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY? 😕

    (and yes we know they're better than in past years)

    GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!
