Fred Warner LB BYU

Player to look at in later rounds. Great in space...has taken some bad angles this year though. 6'3 240

Bump

Id say he's fairly athletic. Great awareness too, processing and mirroring the crosser from the backside pic.twitter.com/G9cYMSWOAI

I want defensive players that use their hands and defeat blocks!!! That's Fred Warner EVERY GAME... You gotta be able to beat blocks!!

Find #4 - whether vs TEs, OGs, OTs, WRs on perimeter.. Warner beats blocks! pic.twitter.com/0iOkEB6pcn

Some get this guy some media attention. Flying way too far under the radar

This guy is a weird study because he's not really an off-ball LB. The position he played at BYU is similar to Tartt's role in Saleh's defense. It's a combo of force/box/overhang defender.

I don't think so...did Steve Young do that after college?

Ziggy went to BYU and then played. Honestly have no idea maybe that's something they do during their college career

Gots some skills but seems to be an arm tackler instead of exploding into the ball carrier and stops his feet when he makes contact.

Potential SAM? Or is he too light?

Looks more like our SS position than a LB.

Huge fan of this guy. He met with the 49ers, and I really hope they consider him in the mid rounds. I love the way he plays

Reminds me of Chris Borland with his awareness, but more athletic. Draft this kid And Shaquem griffin, and our lb core will be solid

dayum. With his size he could be a sam/ss hybrid.
