The "gassed" comment made me want to go watch that game cut, but honestly, I believe a bit of it could be that he was on the field a ton and he was covering all over for an awful defense.  

One thing I really like about him is that he had groin surgery and only had 10 days to prepare for the combine.  And this was what he did there:

That pure ability and the energy he displayed at the Senior Bowl...I suggest watching that game over and over....You really start to notice a small handful of guys that are always making plays.
