Linebackers

Tremaine Edmunds, Virginia Tech: He’s 19 years old and will likely be selected higher than that figure in the first round of the draft. More fun with numbers: he’s 6-foot-4, 253 pounds, and he ran the 40 in 4.54 seconds. Those are some of the reasons Edmunds is Mayock’s top-rated linebacker on the board. “[He has] the skill-set of being able to be a powerful inside off the ball and an edge rusher.”

Roquan Smith, Georgia: Combine the athleticism and sideline-to-sideline speed of Atlanta Falcons Pro Bowl linebacker Deion Jones with the leadership and work ethic of former Pro Bowler Jonathan Vilma, and Mayock says you get Roquan Smith. Or maybe the version we saw at Georgia. Despite weighing in 11 pounds heavier at the combine than his listed weight last year (225), he ran an impressive 4.51 in the 40. Mayock’s takeaway: “I think he’s a plug-and-play off-the-ball linebacker. People are going to love Roquan Smith.”

Shaquem Griffin, UCF: He wasn’t on the original invite list, but that didn’t stop him from crashing the party. Griffin, the combine’s most inspiring story, might have punched his ticket as an NFL draft pick. After completing 20 reps in the bench press with the aid of a prosthetic, he ran a blazing 4.38 in the 40, the fastest for a linebacker since 2003. Accordingly, Mayock (and everyone else) was moved: “Hello! Are you kidding me? Wow. … He can run.”

I REALLY like Edmunds and is ONLY NINETEEN. That kid is very likely the next great MLB to hit the league.
