And Carriker is also a beast! All of these questions will be answered soon enough. After the draft is over we will have a good idea of the possible line-up variations that Tomlin will have to play with. :banana:

This is a very good point about Keisel. I think he is a perfect hybrid player. A guy that could play both 4-3 and 3-4 with no problem. I wouldn't question his coverage ability from the OLB spot. But I sure would love to see him rush the QB from the OLB spot.:bluelol:

Tomlin better hope that he is right! We are known for a linebackers, this goes way back to Andy Russell. He better be right!
