This is like going back to the 96 draft and taking Walt Harris instead of Ray Lewis.
Personally I think Vilma will be more of a Dan Morgan type of player (undersized but great instincts) than he will be a Ray Lewis.

The point is if everyone knew how people were gonna turn out there wouldnt be any draft busts. No one knows for sure who will be impact players. If your name isnt Manning, Fitzgerald, or Gallery then you arent a surefire impact player. I like Vilma, I like Hall....but who is to say that Gamble and Dansby wont be the best at their respective positions?

Ray Lewis was smaller than Vilma coming out of college.

Gamble will probably be, because I think Hall is going to bust and Gamble has the most potential anyway. Dansby is an OLB so I don\'t know why he is in the argument.

I do believe that most scouts figure Vilma to switch to the outside. It all depends on the system he is drafted to into but dont be surprised if it happens.
