CHRISTIAN VARNER?!? Mini- Dawkins gets NO recognition???
I once heard (from a guy who knows a lot more about football than me) a guy talking about how his Maryland Terrapins had an absolute BEAST of a safety who was flying under the radar as far as the draft is concerned. I had pretty much blown the comment off (seeing as to how this guy is a life time Terrapins fan and just thought he was praising one of his former alumni) but at the same time realized this guy knows his stuff. t hadnt been until recently that I read an article someone had posted in the Yard (Sorry dont remember who it was) and it was about Varner and included an awesome hit tape. Thats when I realized who this kid was and boy was "that guy" who would brag about "his Terrapins Safety" right, this kids a beast among men. Not only was he not invited to the combine, it looks as if most experts dont even THINK THIS KID IS DRAFTABLE?!?!? because I cant find a damn thing on him, not even stats or so much as a listing on NFL.com or ESPN.com Im honestly SHOCKED on this one, he looks smaller but is listed at 5'11 and 205lbs. but he plays like a pissed off linebacker on steroids. Maybe thats his problem, a liability in coverage. But can it be THAT BAD that it drops this kid the WHOLE WAY out of the draft? Theres no way....I pray the Eagles take notice (they seem to have a thing for drafting safeties that cant cover anyway) and snatch this kid up, I dont care how early, I mean hes not a 1st or 2nd rounder but somewhere in the middle, hes worth a chance. His upside is the sky.
