James Laurinaitis

[bruinator]

I'm not a college football follower so I have to ask if you could compare James Laurinaitis to any recent LB drafted who would you compare him most to? I appreciates your opinions.

Ive read that the LB hes most compareable to is A.J Hawk they have Laurinitis rated slightly below Hawk. I forgot what site's ive read it on though.

forget about him. bill likes his linebackers grizzled and surrounded by youth

This could be the a big suprise....OL & Rb was was not to be pick either...How can BB & SP suprise us????This is the year!!!!yeah right...

[ShrewBeer]

they are pretty much gonna pick whoever you dont expect and/or want them to pick, and then everything will work out fine.

IMO Laurinitis reminds me of Brian Urlacher.

And that isn't necessarily a compliment, at least wrt the Pats' system. Laurinitis is very good sideline-to-sideline but he may need a couple big DTs (and a 4-3 system) to keep O-linemen off him. From what I've read and seen he has trouble at times getting off blocks.

I heard a rumor that he's as dumb as a rock. If that's the case BB won't touch him.

Oh yeah, that's right. I knew the name sounded familiar.

Don't know much about him though. Andy Gresh on The Score thinks thats who we take. As of right now we have the 8th pick in the draft.
