Great. Anyone can put together a highlight reel of any player.

Would you "want to draft" some Division III RB just because you see a highlight video of him?

He seems to be the top LB in the draft, as much as I would like to see him in a Pats uni I don't he'll be there at #24

Willis led Mississippi with 137 tackles which ranked him sixth in the nation. He was also the 2006 Butkus Award winner, which is presented annually to the best linebacker in college football

Two things I noticed that might entice the Patriots to take him. He has the size they like at ILB. And the fact he is a senior.

Brusci is 6'1 247 pounds. This kid measure in at 6'2 240 pounds.. He has the frame to put on another 10 or so pounds.. I don't think weight is an issue..

Looks like a lot of websites put him between 230-240.. Found this @

http://www.kffl.com/article.php/64436/160

Furthermore, many scouts would like to see Willis bulk up a bit, as throughout his collegiate career, his weight has fluctuated between approximately 230-240 pounds. In our opinion, his size is hardly a detriment

Still at 6'2, he has the frame to put on the weight.. right?
