I really like this kid and would absolutely love to see him at NU but if I had to choose between Greene and Johnson regardless of position.. I’m all about Greene. 

 

Yeah I was thinking this same thing. Obviously it'd nice to have both but having an ILB that can fly around and cover is a bigger deal to me.

Because he's overrated ; )

 

Yeah I said it. He's a better TE.

Someone said that not too long ago, may have been you, and I thought they were crazy. Went and watched his highlights and he looks like a better TE than OLB. 
 

Also, agree with you on Jimari’s upside. I think he could be that pass rusher we’ve been missing for so long. Excited about this class for sure.

 

As I said earlier, like Kaden but if we miss out, having Butler and Greene are massive additions to the LB group

All I have heard the last couple months was that he was supposedly the #1 guy on our board.  And then after a little drama we just say "we're good" and pass? Something doesn't add up.

He said he was N on Saturday then has been flakey and rubbed staff wrong way. Rumor has it Alante Brown is N instead.

So where's he going instead?

So does Gunnerson maybe play at OLB for the first couple of years like Nelson while he bulks up?

Gunnerson was always an OLB I believe

So just because he was “flakey” you turn away the #1 guy on your board?  A LOT must have happened for us to tell him “no thanks”.  I mean this is the same staff that chased MoWa to who knows where to get him 2 years ago.

I'm not sure who was saying it but thought the belief was that he would be eventually play end.

It could've potentially led to missing out on two other OLBs. More could've been said where Scott felt pretty slighted and that Kaden wasn't truly all N. I don't think Scott wants to bring guys in who are like that.
