The word from the scouts is that he flips hips in coverage like a safety, which he used to play.
I wonder if he could be another Kam, certainly the right size and certainly hits like a train. His lack of a hand actually encourages his to have a better technique wrapping up.
But my favorite link on him is this one:

That film shows him literally running twice as fast as the rest of the players on BOTH teams, against top ten competition, in the final moments of a game he should be gassed in.
Also, the story of him actually living in the film room with an air mattress is borderline awesome.
Kam would be an amazing mentor for this kid and his LB play would fit right in with how we use Kam.
That a player that pops off the screen whenever you watch him, does not get an NFL draft invite? Weird.
This is a kid that Seahawks should take in the 5th, if not the 4th. He is an undersized LB with a pass rushing specialty and a tremendous tackler that can also play SS. How is that not a fit?
He probably isn't worth a 4th based on the measurables, but the film says he is an impact player and I don't see how you risk not getting a player that can address the issue we lost when we lost Irvin, for a situational pass rusher and can potentially be a replacement for Kam in a system that seems perfect for him.
Again, no NFL combine invite? WTH
