Isn't Jacob Rodriguez like atrocious in coverage? Also doesnt have size or length. Dunno if thats a guy Saleh would want to use a pick on the first two days. 

Hes good in coverage but from what @AussieTitanFan08posted when he fucks up he fucks up bad. 

 

Edit: At least that is how I reconcile the tape and the data.

I dont see Rodriguez falling out of the top 40. He was the best LB in college and actually has the athletic measurables to backup the production

Was it you that posted something on him giving up the most zone yardage in the league or something last year? Edit: nevermind that was Aussie

 

I had never heard anything close to that and most sites i have seen have him rated him pretty consistently as one of the best coverage LBs draftable.

I hadn't watched any of Rodriguez until just now. That guy is a football players and has the strength and speed to match. Hyper aware tracking RBs, has the Peanut Tillman punch out in spades, and if he wasn't great in zone coverage well he showed really soft hands for a LB. 

 

I bet the lapses in coverage were likely seam routes where even in Zone he is supposed to turn his hips and carry the TE. Obviously speculative, but you could see where he would stay locked in on the QB so it makes sense and doesn't seem terminal at all from the 10 or so minutes I watched. That guy is going to be a stud LB.
