*Notes: The top 5 really couldn’t have landed in a better spot; all are in situations where they’ll succeed right away.  Add in the recent trade that sent Bills LB Sheppard to the Colts pretty much paved the way for Kiko Alonso, and makes him a very intriguing IDP pick with the potential to be a LB2.  Ansah still has some developing to do but he’s going to step right in because who else is going to rush the QB in Detroit? If Mathieu can keep his head straight and stay focused he’s going to ball out at the safety position in Arizona, if he gets the KR duties he’s even more valuable in return yardage leagues.  Datone Jones can easily move up ranks, but I believe he’s right where he needs to be, should be solid out the gate for Green Bay who needs a pass rush from the line.  Matt Elam couldn’t have landed in a better spot too and with Ravens lacking a safety he’ll get immediate playing time, it’s a good thing coverage doesn’t affect stats (see: Cary Williams) so he could flirt with nearly 100+ tackles.

There are a handful of sleepers in the middle of the rankings such as Quanterus Smith; Vince Williams; Brandon Jenkins and Zaviar Gooden.  Zaviar is a solid stash because it’ll make Ayers expendable or it’ll just give Titans much needed depth at LB. Quanterus is another stash because if he returns to form, the Broncos found their replacement for Dumervil.  On the bottom half of the rankings, the ones that stand out with potential are Bledi Wreh Wilson, Michael Buchanan and Gerald Hodges who could all start in the immediate future.  Bledi sounds like the replacement to either Verner or McCourty and Buchanan can be a solid compliment across Chandler Jones.  Hodges can lock up the OLB in Minnesota across Greenway.  Corey Lemonier will be a project but when he takes the reigns in year 2, he’ll rise in rankings.

IDPwithBEE PRE-DRAFT LB RANKINGS

I continue my Pre-Draft IDP rankings with a look at the LB’s in the draft and the depth is there so i’m going with a top 20. 

 

RK	PLAYER	SCHOOL	QUICK HITS
1	ARTHUR BROWN	KANSAS ST	arguably the top LB prospect, should start right away
2	JARVIS JONES	UGA	medically cleared but still some concern, can’t deny potential
3	BARKEVIOUS MINGO	LSU	love this kids motor, will attack from edge – could move to #1
4	KEVIN MINTER	LSU	instant start, not flashy but gets job done
5	KHASEEM GREENE	RUTGERS	more I see this kid, more I like him – hopefully right tm drafts him
6	ALEC OGLETREE	UGA	off-field issues concern, can’t deny the talent
7	ZAVIAR GOODEN	MISSOURI	could be a team’s “Sean Weatherspoon”
8	MANTI TE’O	NOTRE DAME	has the heart and instincts, should be starting where he lands
9	KIKO ALONSO	OREGON	upside and potential lands Kiko into top 10
10	TRAVARDO WILLIAMS	UCONN	another edge rusher, on the right team will produce
11	JAMIE COLLINS	SOUTH MISS	has been on the rise, could be spot play 1st year
12	JON BOSTIC	FLORIDA	if he starts, will rack up a ton of tackles
13	SIO MOORE	UCONN	solid strength & speed, put him on your watch list
14	KEVIN REDDICK	UNC	under the radar MLB, he lands on a team in need – could rise in ranks
15	CHASE THOMAS	STANFORD	could be pass-rush specialist on team in need, spot starter atm
16	BRANDON JENKINS	FSU	explosive and physical – think DeMarcus Ware.
17	SEAN PORTER	TEXAS A&M	versatile in 3-4 or 4-3 ILB, tackles & more tackles
18	JELANI JENKINS	FLORIDA	sideline to sideline speed, solid OLB in 4-3
19	NICO JOHNSON	ALABAMA	looks slow plays slow, maybe – solid run support, could be 2-down LB
20	VINCE WILLIAMS	FSU	overshadowed by a ton of talent on the FSU defense
