Re: Ninkovich on the 53?

He has a good motor.
He does a good job at setting the edge. Keeps his inside shoulder in the correct relation to the blocker in most cases and forces things inside when that's his responsibility.
He can put pressure on the passer.
He can play special teams.
According to PFW In Progress:
He is a back up long snapper.
He can play tight end.
He can play inside linebacker.
Possibly a developing Vrabel-type player?
As I said, it's a longshot, but I'd like to see him make it.
I did read on another thread here, that he has PS eligibility as well.

I loved Ninkovich against the Giants' first-stringers. He made some good plays, and really stood out all around. At this point, I wouldn't have any problem with him beating out Crable for a roster spot.
