I think at this point "longshot" is being generous.

A LB at 200 pounds? He better be bulking up between now and then. The first time he ges hit by a 325 OL it could be ugly.

He's over 210lbs.

And LSU recruited, signed, and now has a 210lb LBer on the team - Ryan Baker.

And dear God people. These measurements are inbetween the JUNIOR and SENIOR years of HIGH SCHOOL. These guys won't even be making impacts in college until 3-4 years down the road. I tihnk they have time to get bigger

Jelani Jenkins is the best outside linebacker prospect in the nation. Manti Te'o is the best inside linebacker prospect in the nation.
