    How many draft spots does Teo drop after this game?

    Who on earth would take him in the top 15 now? An all out pathetic performance on the biggest stage of his life. He doesn't look like a future star LB to me.

    Agreed. Jason Whitlock had a great line:

    He's just slow. No way else to put it.

    He wasn't going to be a Top 5 pick anyways. Depending on his combine, he'll be a 8-15 pick

    Not many. He was behind Jarvis Jones anyway.

    this is the reason the charlotte bobcats are as bad as they are. jordan does the same thing during march madness.

    He'll be a good NFL Linebacker..

    top 20-25 pick..

    Hes not the same type of players as Jarvis Jones.

    Jarvis Jones= Von Miller.

    Manti Teo = Lawrence Timmons.


    completely different jobs on defense as to getting after the qb and what not.

    He won't leave the 1st round. A lot of teams would like to have him as their LB.

    He was the biggest disappointment in the game. No one expected much from nd offense.

    This was his worst game all year by far and he still had 10 tackles. I don't think he drops much.

    he still had 10 solo tackles after a bad start. when you have linemen getting to the next level its kinda hard to make tackles....yeah he looked like a fool a few times but it was a bit blown out of a proportion. he will be fine and will play on sundays for a long time.

    will be a AJ Hawk type of player.

    on a whole bunch of mock drafts all over the internet. ive seen him as high as 5th on one.

    anyways, scouts knew what he was before this game, so i don't know how much it will effect him. Teams are still going to fall into the trap, of falling in love with his 7 ints, and him only missing a couple tackles this year. even though that has more to do with the defensive scheme. Ive always said he was way to slow to play in the nfl, it def. showed today. But i don't understand why most teams wouldn't know that already. Some body is just going to reach on him hoping he is the next great mlb for their 4-3 system.

    so a below average mlb, gotcha. i think that is being too nice to him, aj is much bigger and faster then te'o. I really don't know who to compare te'o too you really don't see undersized slow mlb's.

    and really how long has it been since a mlb was a high pick, the last one i remember was hawk. usually it has been olb, or de's to fit in the 3-4.

    Good player not great. He was the crown jewel of all Charlie Weiss's recruiting classes
    a legit 5 star recruit. He wasn't the only ND player who had a bad game tonight, what happened to the vaunted ND front 7 they all were over matched!

    Golston played well, he and #10 look promising for the future!

    Teo is 50/50 to be drafted in the first round, may or may not be a starter in the pros!

    The guy had an off day tonight, as did all of ND. One game shouldn't affect his stock too much. When he did get into position to make a play, he got beat. If he can't tackle Lacy, he sure will have fun with AP, Jamal, foster... The list goes on.

    heard they've been looking at a Nigerian soccer player with 4.1 speed for that 3 slot. Planning on him being a kickoff specialist.

    Draft Bama players. That would be my strategy. As many as you can. The Eagles finally got that right last year with Cox.
