    Speedy Texas A&M outside linebacker Von Miller improved upon his impressive NFL scouting combine showing. Miller ran the 40-yard dash in 4.49 seconds today at the Aggies' Pro Day workout, faster than his 4.53 that he clocked at the combine. "I love watching the kid on tape," NFL Network draft analyst Mike Mayock told National Football Post. 'I can’t tell you how many times I wrote down, ‘Wow.' He might have the quickest get-off explosion in the draft. He almost defies gravity. he's a phenomenal pass rusher. "He’s a little bit undersized. You’ve got to figure out how you’re going to play him, but when you’re looking for natural pass rush ability, and that’s what the league is about right now, he’s at the top of your list.†Miller is a terrific pass rusher, but also showed at the Senior Bowl that he can also be an all-around linebacker who's capable of dropping back into pass coverage and stuffing the run.

  6. Buffalo at #3 if they pass on Newton.......

    Not even close to Gholston. Miller has "hips." Gholston doesn't.
     
  9. Greg Cosell said before the '08 draft that Gholston was an undrafted free agent talent. Three years, zero sacks......he was spot on.

    Well, someone give Cosell a cookie for predicting that one. I see some mocks where the Titans would chose him. I just don't see how he'd fit in our scheme. Would he be a 4-3 end for the Titans? I just don't see it.
     
  11. I think he would play LB but I agree with you. I don't see him as a 4-3 LB. He will be gone by the time we pick in all likelihood so it doesn't matter haha,
