Because of the depth of this position not going to focus on only the early guys like with CB, rather going to put up the ones who fit our defense one at a time. This looks like a high chance of drafting type position for us this year, due to need and the depth of the class. It's a really nice class so going to kick it off with my favorite prospect and a guy who looks to my eye like a late round 1 to round 2 pick. IMO this is a dude who is undervalued in most mocks I have seen, but maybe I'm crazy and he's a guy they can trade down and get. Either way he has some crazy upside, is a need, and a fit for this defense.
OLB Lorenzo Carter, Georgia
Strengths: super tall & rangy but very strong and hard to move, sets the edge very well, excellent athlete for his size, can get upfield quickly on the rush with raw talent.
Weaknesses: not a polished rusher.
Here's a clip I put up in another thread, him vs what is probably the best offense in college ball, and it shows how much he's used in drops and coverage but also how he can get upfield and how well he can set the edge and contain:
