Off the field, it's a freakin' miracle that this kid is so clean when he was surrounded by 'punks' like Maurice Evans at Penn St. He will be a better player than Cushing in my estimation because he can apply pressure in the backfield and he's more athletic than Mathews.

I guess the question I'd have to ask is, would we be willing to have Kamerion Wimbley play SAM for a 1st round pick?
I like the SAM idea, but the WILL position could be an even bigger impact. Image taking someone like Kruger in the 2nd, and having Maybin and Kruger on the right side. Both can bring it and the OLT would always have to watch the WILL at the snap giving the DE an edge also. Talk about the games that could be played.
