The Vikings seem to be enamored with Te'o, so I'll guess he won't last past 25.
considering they took Ponder at 12 this doesnt surprise me

it'd only be fitting that Te'o goes to the Niners.

Kiper has Teo at 20 to the bears. I guess they just can't wait to pass the torch next year: Butkus - Singletary - Urlacher - Welter!

lets go down the list of All Pros and Hall of Famers who played bad in their toughest game.

You're on the MSB right now, keep it together.

off the top of my head he made diving interceptions against Michigan, Navy and Oklahoma so thats at least 3.
i dont think anyone watched the navy game so you are probably right about that one. he didnt actually catch the OU INT though.

Teo did have 7 INTs but anyone who has seen his highlights knows that they were all either thrown in his gut by horrid QBs or tipped 25 feet high by someone else.
truth.

tebow can't wait for manti to get to the nfl and take a little heat off his back

Making interceptions against a triple option team == NFL superstar

I'll say this in defense of Te'o, who I think is overrated myself.
James Laurinaitis made basically the exact read Te'o did in a National title game. I know he had like 17 tackles or something, but many of them against LSU were 6+ yards past the LOS. He ran a 4.8 at the combine
He has 500+ tackles in 4 NFL seasons.

you talking about the TD to the TE? That was an unbalanced line with the TE at tackle against lsu. Teo's was a regular goalline formation.
I do think Laurinaitis is Teo's comparison, but i also think lil Animal kinda sucks himself. Of course you will make a ton of tackles playing ILB for 16 games.

Praying Teo is drafted by Philadelphia, NYG or Wash
Posted on 4/22/13 at 2:44 pm to Tiger Ryno
Atl needs Te'o
Posted on 4/22/13 at 2:46 pm to Maximus
He and Tony Gonzales make a nice soft pair

I feel like they both had the TE as their guy and got duped in on play action. Honestly I don't 100% remember the LSU play but I remember JL missing the read on it
And JL has been in the top 15 in NFL tackles each of his 4 years. That can't suck no matter what. I don't think he's Willis, but he is a solid pro who likely will make a pro bowl or two, and I think is deserving

OU int was tipped. First Michigan int was thrown right at him and he didn't dive, and the second was tipped again. Navy int I wouldn't call a dive. You fail.

lsu lined up the LT out as a slot WR on the right, with the tight end as the left tackle but actually eligible. Much more excusable than Teo just forgetting that teams are allowed to pass.

This support his "instincts" though. He was in the area of the play, even when the ball was thrown somewhere else. They showed the OU one with Gruden and it was impressive to me how he knew where it was going to develop. It was 1 play, but I thought a good read

Oh god LOL. He was always just standing in the middle of the field...ya know, where an ILB should be.
The fact people think he is a better than average LB blows my fricking mind.
