    I think Herbig is a little bigger and might be able to add some size, but he?s one of those smaller guys that?s gotta be a bit of a long shot.

    Highsmith had the size, the quickness, and the hustle. I?d argue he was a complete natural without super athleticism. His work going after the ball last year got him over the hump toward being great.

    I see your comparison a little but Her if doesn?t quite have the size.
    In this case, the beauty of it is that he's #4 OLB for this season and has some really good veterans in front of him. He'll get his chance to learn some technique while sitting (which should allow him time to bulk up a little).

      Pads go on tomorrow, and then we'll know more.

        Yeah no pads favors small and quick. That said I have a good feeling he will surprise people.

        I kinda have my Hawaii bias so Im really rooting for the kid.

        In view of the fact that Mike Tomlin has matched Cowhers record I give him the designation:
