The Boston Herald expects second-round OLB Jermaine Cunningham to be given "every opportunity to make a big-time impact on the edge" as a rookie.

Cunningham is seeing plenty of time with the starters opposite Tully Banta-Cain, and he's said to look "quicker and more smooth" than veteran Pierre Woods. With Derrick Burgess telling friends that he believes he's played his last down in the NFL, Cunningham is poised to fill a key role.

At this point we need somebody capable of playing OLB opposite TBC. That's not exactly going out ona limb. If Cunningham cant beat out Nikovice or Woods we're in deep ****.

if Cunningham, can't beat out Woods, and Ninkovich, two Career ST/ ok back up OLB's then i hate to say but he would be a wast of a pick

AndyJohnson

Thats ridiculous. Many good draft picks start their rookie seasons slow.

patsfan-1982

that's true but he has a lot more talent and size then both Woods, and Ninkovich, the only thing i could see holding him back from starting is not picking up the system fast a nuff

AndyJohnson

Its not just picking up the system. Its making a position change and adjusting to the NFL.
Players that develop slow are much more often having trouble adjusting to the level of competition and speed of the game, than not picking up the system. Its very rare that a player having played football for 10-15 years isn't smart enough to know the play calls.
