When you look at linebackers, you need to several things. First, athleticism! Another important thing is intelligence, all linebackers have to know their assignments. Lastly, you have to have heart. This is what I look for in linebackers when coming out of college. I have been blessed to watch tons of film on Jabril Cox from his days at North Dakota State University. The 3x National Championship winner at the FCS level is a dog, he plays with great instincts and has great athleticism, but I wanted to take a second to compare him to a player in the NFL.
