Every draft typically has at least one linebacker go in the first round, but this year might be an exception. Not that there aren’t really good prospects, but the top shelf talent isn’t there in this class. For linebacker hungry teams like Philadelphia, there could be good value on day two.
1. Edgerrin Cooper, Texas A&M
What he does well: Edgerrin Cooper’s highs at the linebacker position are very, very high. He is a phenomenal athlete with long, strong arms which allow him to attack the line of scrimmage with ease. He can fight through blocks using his ferocious physicality and strength and he can chase down plays with his burst and speed.
