LB Charles Snowed out of Virginia

[Bostonheelfish]

Anyone else really like this guy. 6'7" with tons of length, athleticism and speed. He would need to have a scheme fit for him, but he looks like he'd be a monster linebacker in zone coverage with the ability to rush the passer and play the run on the outside. He'd certainly have to have special packages to take advantages of his traits, but the guy has the instincts and freakish ability. Having him behind our line, and the blitzes we could bring with him and dropping Burns into coverage, and vice versa would create a lot of opportunities. I don't care whether he is a scheme fit for 3-4 or 4-3, to me he's just a weapon you figure out how to use. In the 4th round he'd be a steal IMO.

Why did I think this was a thread about a LB with the last name Charles, who was snowed out of the state of Virginia?

He was a hell of a College football player - always stood out when the Canes played him.

I'm not sure how he projects to the next level though - I suspect he's going to get bullied, but who knows. 

That said if I was a 3-4 team I'd take him to play OLB in the third round.

Really interesting prospect. Off the ball LB with ideal edge rusher length. His evaluations are probably all over the board across the league. He's one of those guys who could end up going a lot higher than most think because it's easy to see how a team could have him valued pretty highly. Other teams are going to be nervous about his height and the relative lack of comps for off the ball LBs.

What the heck. He doesn’t look 6’7” at all.

He reminds me of Simmons from last year absent the ability to play some man coverage, and I don't think Simmons is being asked to play as much man in the NFL as he was in college.  Snowden just plays a lot like him in the box, and I think he'd be a great value.  He'd be great covering running backs and TE's coming out of the backfield in zone coverage. He's so big and long, he'd immediately deter a QB from making short passes in a quick passing game. He'd just erase a large part of the middle of the field and be a monster in the flats.

Because it happens much too often.

Get him on a pro team weight and nutrition program for a season and you can build your own monster.

If he made it to the fourth or fifth round, I'd have to take a chance on him.

Sheesh put him on special teams and make the other team's punter wet himself at each fourth down snap.
