This is from NFL.com
BOTTOM LINE:
Injuries limited Reddick to just four games over last two years of high school, forcing him to walk on at Temple. The Owls staff helped him unlock his explosive athletic traits on the field, which resulted in three forced fumbles, 9.5 sacks and 21.5 tackles for loss in 2016. Reddick's speed and athleticism might give him a greater shot at impacting the game as a 3-4 inside linebacker or a 4-3 WILL rather than trying to bulk up and play the edge. An ascending prospect with a high-end potential if he can continue to hone his craft.
Does anyone trust this coaching staff to take a guy who is out of position and coach him up to be an all-pro LB? It's never happened before and they've tried it with other draft picks.
Foster has tons of problems Murdock. I would take Zach Cunningham over Reuben Foster.
Hassan Reddick is way more athletic, can rush the passer and cover better than Foster.
If we take a LB at 9 i want it to be Reddick.
