Being a BC Eagles fan the guy I would love to see them get is OT Anthony Castanzo. Kid is a beast OT and will be one of the better OT in the game for the next 10 years. Just my opinion but I think he is that good.
How do you feel about Herzlich? I like him in the late rounds as a leader and a down hill linebacker, it's just that I don't think he can drop in coverage, which is pretty critical to this league, and the Pats in particular
Herzlich can cover in zone schemes, he is very instinctive. On Man to Man schemes he would struggle though.
I like him. I'm just not sure he's better than Fletcher.
After watching Herzlich this past season, its a bit unclear to me how much of his play was a result of rust and how much was related to his illness/recovery.
I don't think he's an everydown LB in the NFL. In my eyes, he's an ideal situational back. The guy can still pursue with the best of them. I'd be concerned with his pass coverage abilites at the next tier as well as his ability to shed blocks on running situations. My guess would be that he's more likely to adjust to the latter rather than the former.
Certainly worth a mid-late draft gamble, though.
