Tyrus McCloud, Louisville, ILB
6-2, 242 lbs

McCloud is the best inside linebacker in the draft. His stock has risen in the last few weeks and now looks to be a first rounder. He has the size and strength to take on the huge interior offensive linemen in the NFL. His aggressive nature makes him a dominant run stopper, yet he still maintains the discipline needed to successfully man his position. With a little experience, McCloud should turn in to a solid NFL linebacker, who will contribute for years to come.
