Highlighting 'Huskers workouts

This is from a Patriots perspective. It's rare to see some Nebraska love shown on the Pats blog, so I was very excited to read this piece. It's brief and covers David, Fonz, and Marcel Jones.

Snippets:

Lavonte:

David said he played in a multiple defense at Nebraska -- "we had a mixture of both 4-3 and 3-4, and I think I got a good feel for it" -- and his football smarts figure to appeal to Belichick.
Fonz:

Like David, he is undersized for his position, although he stressed at the combine that his ability to play press coverage helps him against bigger receivers.
Marcel:

A projected early- to middle-round pick, he has NFL-type size (6-foot-6, 330 pounds) with long arms... He has the type of physical make-up and athleticism that makes him a candidate to enroll in the Dante Scarnecchia School of Offensive Linemen.
Some of the stuff here surprised me. Always interesting to see an outside view.

Relatedly, Reiss gives Sam McKewon a shoutout here. Pretty cool, reading an OWH article and summarizing it for all of Pats nation.
