Maybe, but I doubt it.At outside kenny, er, linebacker, once his knee heals. Maybe he'll be the guy shawn crable was supposed to be.

DL Greg Romeus: Pittsburgh
Possesses a tall, long-armed frame and has the ability to consistently shed blocks and work his way toward the quarterback. However, missed a lot of the season due to a back injury and a torn ACL, has a questionable motor and needs to learn to play with a more consistent pad level. A real boom or bust prospect.
I would definitely take a chance on Romeus in the 4th round. He has the measurables and a very intruiging skill set, and with the number of picks and limited number of needs, I think we can afford to take a chance on him. I think he has the ability to set the edge and rush the passer, but he is a big ? in pass coverage because he missed most of the season. He looked poor in limited action this season, mainly because of a back injury, but if he's 100% healthy I think he would be a great addition at OLB. His stock is low and he could be an absolute steal in the 4th. He's still raw because of the lack of playing time, but I think if you can bring him along slowly he has a real shot of being at least a solid contributor. His injuries are a slight concern, and he's probably an IR candidate for 2011, but I think if you are patient with him it will pay off. At the very least he will give TBC some competition.
I agree, but only if the doctors clear him.
I completely agree. However, if his injuries are serious and he goes undrafted I would still take him as an UDFA and give him a year on IR to see how he goes. To me the back injury is more of a concern than the knee injury. The way medical science is improving knee injuries can be fixed, but back injuries really scare me.
Amen my brother! Back and neck injuries have to be investigated. And even if we do take Romeus as an UDFA or a late round draft pick and IR him like we did with Weston, that would give his back time to heal, him time to learn the terminology and work some on technique and maybe he can start contributing in year two.

What is the verdict on Weston??
Did we get him in a low round due to injury?
Selected in a low round because he is "just another guy"?
A player with potential?

Depending on the board at the time, I tend to agree. Romeus is going to need an injury redshirt year like Tate, but the Patriots have a deep enough roster to take that kind of calculated long-term gamble.
