LeRue Rumph?

I've been trying to figure out what happened with this guy? I first read about him in TSN's draft guide where they have him rated as a 4th round prospect. He seems like a good fit at ILB for the Pats, but I haven't seen anything online about him recently.

Sounds like a made-up name to me.

Ever since Craphonso Thorpe, I take nothing for granted.

thanks! I'm guessing there's an injury that caused him to drop.

He weigh's 226, how does he fit the Patriots? The smallest LB they have is Bruschi who weighs 245. This guy is waaaaaay to small for the Patriots.

Yeah, just scanning the profile, he missed time with an ankle injury. I've never heard of him, so I'm guessing he wasn't very productive either.

well we're talking about a 4th round pick at best anyway. It's not like I expect him to come in & start right away. But at worst he could be a nickel safety/special teamer until he adds some bulk.

At safety!
