hes been on my radar since he came out of HS, hes played on some shitty teams and on some shitty defenses but anyone who follows the draft has known who he s for quite some time...i thought it was pretty surprising he went back to school last season. Dont tell me i just regurgitate ESPN garbage, ive seen him play plenty and 4 years of playing well and an incredible season isnt just erased by one gameQuote:

- Read & React speed = ELITE
- Lateral Mobility = ELITE
- Football IQ / Awareness = ELITE
- Sideline to Sideline = Very Good
- Leadership = Very Good
- Tackling = Very Good
- Zone Coverage = Very Good
- Point of Attack Strength = Above Average
- Blitz = Above Average
Te'o has no flaws
(But he's a much better fit in the middle of a 4-3, than a 3-4)
beautifully said.Quote:

Can we give Mike Mauti a look from PSU in the later rounds if we dont decide to get an ILB early (Teo), I like Mauti a lot and think he can bring a leadership role right away to this team.
i like skov too
I think his best position ends up being WLB in a 4-3 - where his vision, agility, sideline to sideline playmaking would make him a virtual Derrick Brooks clone.Quote:

A pure leader, whose impact transcends his ability.
As for a 3-4, I don't think he's as good of a fit for Pittsburgh because he would HAVE to play the Mack (Timmons). I think only weakness would be exposed playing the Buck (Foote) in a 3-4.
If he were available at #17, I'd take him in a heartbeat... and then make the case that our personnel now dictated that we play a 4-3. Timmons WLB, Te'o MLB
Neil & Train, thanks for the insight! It's helpful for me a college / draft dumbass!
If they would move to a 4-3 I want Gerald Hodges in the 3rdQuote:
