If Steelers OLB Jack Sawyer strikes you as a guy Mike Vrabel would like, there’s probably a good reason. They are some similar size and build, both coming out of Ohio State, both drafted by the Steelers. Both were mid-round picks, entering a crowded room ahead of him. For Sawyer, it’s T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith (and Nick Herbig). For Vrabel, it was Greg Lloyd and Jason Gildon.
Since his fourth-round selection by the Steelers, it’s no surprise that Jack Sawyer has drawn comparisons to Mike Vrabel. One only hopes, of course, that his career takes a different path.
