NIU:
Larry English, DE/OLB – English played down end in a 4-3, but I don’t think there is any question that he will have to move to 3-4 OLB in the NFL. He’s not big enough or strong enough to hold the POA against the run as a down lineman, but that’s not what you’re drafting him for. He’s strictly a pass rush guy, and I think he’s still developing in that area. He has the speed and instincts to make an impact, but he needs to refine his arsenal of pass rush moves so he has a secondary pass rush move to go to. The thing I really like about English is his effort. He chases plays away from him and does not stop until the play is over. It’s that hustle that will allow him to develop quickly at a position he’s not played before, and with a good combine effort in the LB drills, he may sneak into the end of the first round or early second.
La. Tech:
Phillip Livas, WR- Livas is only a Sophomore, but he has very good upside. He’s small and doesn’t play a true WR position. He moves around a lot and plays some RB, some slot WR, and some perimeter WR. He’s extremely fast, and he’s a top notch return man. He’ll slip due to his size when he eventually is draft eligible, but he’s going to make a very good back up and return man in the NFL. Reminds me a lot of Darren Sproles.
