Yes but I don't think he will enter the draft this year.

To be honest this was the first Seminal's game I watched this year, and this kid jumped off of the screen. He was everywhere, and his motor was non stop.

Did he get hurt in this game, I remember him coming off of the field late?

I agree, he is one of those guys who jumps off the screen and screams NFL caliber player

Werner is a beast but what position do you guys see him playing in the NFL?

Personally, I don't see him playing 3-4 OLB. 4-3 DE and even 3-4 DE would be more suited for him. I know is playing around 255 right now but he was 275 last year.

OLB.

The kid has only played ball for a few years and is still very raw. If he goes to a team with good coaches they can mold that boy into the big Nazi monster he dreams of being.

Even at 265-275 he could still play OLB....if he comes in at 6'4, 265 would be ideal IMO.

I can see that and I'd love for the Niners to draft him. With that said, I still highly doubt that he comes out this year. I think he would have to be a top 10 pick to consider it.

Just FYI...if you watch any FSU games. Keep an eye on Tank Carradine also. Tank has tons of talent and now has the chance to show it. My prediction is that Tank will go in the 2/3rd round.

Dude that is totally inappropriate and offensive. I am German and that's out of line. No German would like to be known as a Nazi.

Hmm, you are talking about a group of people who mass murdered 10 million people systematically. They murdered 20-30 million Russians. Nothing "funny" about it.

Agreed, I'm 100% German, born in Trier, Germany, grew up in the Bay Area. And not all German's during WW2 were Nazi's. Even the ones that were forced to serve in the German military.

Gotta admit jreff that was way outta line. Just because you're part German doesn't give you license to throw that around. I'd keep racial/ethnic jokes like that out of this stuff

Back on topic. As much as I am increasingly liking this guy I dont see us drafting an OLB early, maybe signing a veteran to compete with Haralson, Fleming, and Johnson?
