That's my question as well. I wonder how he performed while dropped into coverage...

I think its a uphill battle for him just to make the team, love the pick and all. No issue for a mid-round 6th.

That said, think him as a gunner! or a 3rd and long specialist. I think weight room is his path and that means DL.

FYI, he did play linebacker in HS per the OP

This is the pick I hate the most. Yeah he has speed but lacks technique. I feel like the players with good technique do better in the nfl then your players who are great physically.

its the 6th round bro

 

the players you talk of do not exist here

 

we took a dude with ELITE traits.  with dart throws you throw for the bullseye

 

if you "hate" 6th round picks you gotta get off the couch bro

VT played him at LB also according to nfl.com. ST gunner was the first thing that jumped into my mind when I read his profile and saw all that speed!

The kid is raw and full of potential it seems. If he had the Football IQ (or can develop it) i'd love to see him at Mike...otherwise he'll probably just replace M. Haynes as a rotational pass rusher and special teams specialist (which in the 6th round is still a good find).

Yea that will help, even Burns dropped into coverage with Snow callin plays. He can follow, but nearly all add weight coming to the NFL and unless he can be a 270 LB......edge is his spot. Personally never a fan, maybe one time a game I want my edge dropping back in coverage. Many "WTFs" were had when I saw peppers do it. 

I do want to look into the Baylor D more, cause the reddick-style edge was unique. I think they truly want to have that D in the NFL as their base. 

Lastly I do feel the panthers have the fastest D in the whole NFL.

We played a good deal of Wide 9 in Rhule's first year. Didn't really watch much this past season, but Barno may be able to eat in that scheme.
