    Dravon Askew-Henry from WVA. Isn't as missile like as PJ Locke but has an exceptional repetitive "wrap-em-up" quality to his tackling ... and tackling with a violence that does not equal Locke's but is , IMO, a more reassuring tackler without sacrificing much physicality. Just seems like if you wrap them up they go down with more regularity, less ooooh and aaaah but fewer first downs given up too.

    I'll take a sure tackler over the big hitter everyday in today's NFL. Most of those huge hits become penalties or the runner is able to bounce off and continue for a TD. Kid seems to have a real nose for the ball too. Might be the UDFA that sticks this year

    We should remember this when the tickets start costing cash ... he may be one of a few ... special team contribution and b/u positional + smarts = ...Tomlin's pulling out all the "whatever it takes" stops and I'm in to it and I'm pretty sure everyone in camp right now is too . Any contributor to ST (he's a reliable tackler on film) + positional relevance as as noticed by coaching and FO Tomlin pulling out all the stops ... may the best man win.:bet:
