Easy. Call me crazy but he reminds me a lot of Patrick Willis.

He was all over the field in the game against us.

No doesn't move well enough. Thumpers aren't high draft picks.

AJ has great instincts as a LB, but he doesn't have half the athleticism that Willis did/does

True. He's pretty damn athletic though. He's not lacking for speed. At least not that I can see. I've only watched Tennessee play a few times this year.

I think that's his biggest knock at this point. He can tackle and wrap up but can get exposed when forced to go sideline to sideline.

No, he isn't a first rounder. I wouldn't be surprised to see a team like the patriots take him in the 3rd/4th round.

He never was. Not a single draft board this season had him anywhere near the 1st round. He's been an outstanding college player, but he is not a 1st round talent. He could end up being great in the NFL but he was never getting picked in the 1st round.

looks like he's gonna get picked up by the Knox County Sherrifs in the first round.

Mid-round. Doesn't have great foot speed. He will be a very good MLB in a 3-4 though imo.

No, 3rd-4th rounder. Might see a team in the late 2nd reach if they really need an ILB and he's the best still on the board.
