He played DE in college, but the draft experts consistently say he will/should play ILB in the NFL. Why wouldn't he be a great OLB for a 3-4 or a 4-3? Seems with his speed he can cover when needed or rush the passer from the outside (like he has done in college). I like him in that role for the Saints if Barnett is gone by 11.

I haven't seen that. I've always seen OLB.

CBS says OLB

He also played LB in college and DB in High School.

Nah. Almost all of them say he should play WILL in a 4-3 or possibly ILB in a 34.

So he would play WILL for us.

That's exactly what he would be for us. WILL LB used as a pass rusher and in coverage.

He played at 4-3 OLB in the Senior Bowl and dominated.

He's fast, he can rush the passer, and he started off as a walk on corner back at Temple so he can cover also.

I think I am on the Reddick train. My #1 choice besides one of the top 10 studs slipping to us.

I remember early in the draft process when we started talking about him on here, people were losing their shite at the thought of taking him at 11.

Now faced with the possibilities of Humphrey or Jackson, people are cumming their pants over him.

This is my pick at 11 unless someone falls. He can be a explosive MLB if he bust there then he's a edge rusher who can get you double didget sacks each year I think he's bust proof
