Forgetting about the red headed step child is still child neglect, what should his punishment be @Lyman ???
That is light punishment. If you want it to be harsher, make him root for the 1-31 Hue Jackson Browns
I like the way he blitzes from the position. If he was a tad taller and heavier I'd be more inclined to bump him up my rankings because of his style of play. He has high marks for 'tenacity' in my scoring, something that I like to see and weigh accordingly in defensive players. I think he's been poorly coached in the fundamentals. His tackling form is suspect and he has a lot of wasted motion on most downs. He plays his lanes/zones but his feel for the position is lacking. He's sitting at #20 on my rankings right now but my main concern is not seeing a place to fit him in on defense. Tough to project him as an eventual starter because he's not good enough in coverage to play FS, not sound of enough of a tackler to play SS and may be too light to plug in as a LB on passing downs. The athleticism is there and he likely becomes a special teams starter/possible standout but he has a tall hill to climb to become a reliable back-up as a professional.
Well I asked for it because he had such good combine measurables. So I was curious to see how he stacked up on the Tim scale...But I have to say, sorry I'm not in agreement with much of that at all...Take the Combine out of the equation . This is just an overview that I thought was pretty accurate (from NFL.com): Igwebuike (ig-weh-BYU-kay) could have gone to many different successful college football programs as a finalist for Ohio's Mr. Football Award in 2012 (1,985 rushing yards, 29 TD, five interceptions at Pickerington North). The four-star recruit picked Northwestern, where he redshirted his first season with the Wildcats. He started five of 11 games played the following year, making 51 tackles and tying for the team lead with three interceptions (all coming against Wisconsin). Igwebuike took a leadership role in 2015, starting every game and putting up 87 stops, 4.5 for loss, and five pass breakups. Big Ten coaches took notice of his ability to cover the field as a run and pass defender in 2016, voting him second-team all-conference after leading his team with 108 tackles, 5.5 for loss. He ranked ninth in the FBS with six solo tackles a game during the year, often attacking holes in the run game with quickness and power. He intercepted his only pass of the year against Pittsburgh in the Pinstripe Bowl, also making seven tackles and breaking up another throw. Igwebuike started all 13 games as a senior, garnering second-team All-Big Ten honors with 78 tackles, 1.5 for loss, two interceptions, and nine pass breakups. Chalk him up as another guy we'll likely discuss at a later date...Second team all Big 10, followed by that combine performance should have him a little higher than the 20th rated guy at his position with a long uphill climb to be a back up, IMO...But we'll see.
