Anyone heard of him, former rb for texas at 6'3" 270 (was moved to DE), wasnt invited to the combine, but had a great pro day at texas. seems like an intriguing prospect raw but very athletic and massive, possible olb material? what do you guys think.

" The 6-3, 269-pound Melton clocked in the 4.5 range in the 40-yard dash at the UT bubble,His 40 time followed a vertical leap of 34 1/2 inches earlier in the day, which was better than wideout Quan Cosby’s best effort of 33 inches. Melton added a solid 23 repetitions in the 225-pound bench press. On day when teammate Aaron Lewis was limited after he tweaked his hamstring, Melton did everything right, competing in every drill and improving his draft prospects in front of 60 NFL scouts. After registering 19 solo tackles and 4 sacks in his only season as a starter, Melton wasn’t thought to be a sure-fire draft prospect. That may have changed after Wednesday’s workout. “(The scouts) got to see the awesome athleticism they didn’t know I had,” Melton said.
