DE/OLB Kareem Martin, North Carolina -- Speaking of Tarheels, I've spent some time closely re-watching Martin as well ever since our season ended. I love watching Martin, even though his tape is underwhelming, because he has so many tools that just haven't developed yet, and he just pops on the field. He's nowhere near the player now that he can be in a few years with really good coaching. He's huge, first of all: 6'6", 272 lbs. He played with his hand in the ground, and he looks like an ideal fit as a 4-3 DE. I'd like to see his athleticism at the Combine -- he looks like he has about 4.7 speed, and should he test well, a team like the Chiefs could experiment with him as a Hali-esque convert to the 3-4. His Combine/pro day are going to be huge, however, to see how viable that conversion would be.
