Also curious about why he might be a long shot. Seems like he would have a lot of opportunities here. This hybrid 4-3/Nickel defense we keep hearing about seems to be more of a consequence of poor recruiting prior to CBJ. We had no pass rush, mostly because CDD refused to take anyone who could move, so we are converting outside linebackers to defensive ends in the hopes of getting some leverage. Wouldn't it be better to take someone who plays the position than to try and fit a square peg in a round hole once they get to campus? I think Sweat has a lot of potential. People are already looking for the Second Coming of Jadeveon Clowney. Why not this guy in Orange & White? Once again, immediate playing time has to be a plus. I'll shut up now. GBO!
