Logan Wilson was the right linebacker to pick in the third but ADG really excites me

As long as there's no injury, I agree.
Pratt, Bynes, Wilson, ADG, and Bailey should be the 5.

I think Wilson will be the glue guy the LB crew needed, even as a rookie.  He's going to be one of those guys that makes an impact regardless of tackle numbers and INTs.  His instincts and run pass recognition will help with consistently helping others make plays.  No matter if it's making the QB wait a split second to find a hot read or getting washed out by a guard at the line so another guy gets the RB, his impact will be felt.  

From what I've seen of ADG, he has a knack for getting to the perimeter and using that frame to his advantage.  He's still raw in coverage for a guy his size, but keep it simple for him and he should bring a few big plays as a rotational guy.

Nice post Phil well said and I feel the same about both players. Wilson should be the glue. ADG has size concerns.

With ADG only weighing about 220 pounds he might have problems tackling big backs and TE's. Wilson should have no prob.

Also really like Markus Bailey if he can stay healthy, pops off the screen when watching Purdue.

I tried to research the "bone on bone" claim, but all I got was a bunch of gay porn videos.
