Would that depend on if they think those young guys could contribute immediately or need time to groom? If they need time and this guy could come in and play immediately, maybe he's a take?

Edit: I don't think that highly of this prospect but if he can do something immediately then take him and run.

Remember that we got a few good LBs last year too.

Yes but point still stands. Nelson has a big role but otherwise we have a lot of unknowns. If they think this guy is better and can give a shot in the arm to the defense for 2 years then could still be worth it.

As long as there’s room and the spot isn’t taken by another good player at another position.

I like Nelson, great energy, Nebraska kid, but hes not the most talented kid in the world. He should be a solid backup, but we need better talent starting in front of him. If we can get a guy with close to similar energy but better talent, then weve got something.

I think in a perfect world he would get bigger and become a DE. That’s where I think he could be a difference maker.

 
There is no way they only take 22-23. We are now at 18. Wonder if this will affect us accepting Butler?
