Speed is nothing without instincts. See: Stephone Anthony.

And Martez Wilson, who IIRC was the fastest LB in the draft that year.

I don't think it helped that he was drafted as an inside linebacker from a 3-4 defense and we changed his position 3 times before releasing him.

Middle linebacker, to outside backer and then finally moved to DE under spags, then released.

Plus joe vitt coached him, that's a death sentence if anyone needed one pointed out to them.

But 2 other teams picked him up and released him as well.

Vitt wasn't the problem. Martez Wilson was the problem
