His height is his main drawback. He has incredible fight though. I can see him rushing the passer on 3rd down at wide 9. Would be a cheap backup plan.

I've been a big fan of Lewis Neal since he got to LSU and he did much better than I thought he would at LSUs Pro day. 4.72 40yd dash and a 36" vert at 261lbs. I believe his vert was the highest at the Pro day. Impressive. Also saw where he looked pretty good in LB drills and agility drills.

No, his height isn't what you want for his position. But hes got really long arms (arm length of someone 6'5). And that helps him makeup for his lack of height. And he's very strong. He actually played DT at LSU his sophomore year, at 255lbs. And he held his own. Also think he would be a nice special teams player as well.

I'd be happy with Neal late in the draft.
