Spoke to a good friend whos is a huge Chargers fan and he only had good things to say about Te'o. Injuriesis the only knock on him. Apart from that he seems like a solid player and well respected teammate.

He is the poster child for why you should keep your mouth shut to the media as a college player...

BUT...

If the dude contributes to the team and falls in top 3 in tackles or is superman on special teams.... who cares what he did or what he said?

Guess that depends upon the flounder.

What's the difference between him and James Laurinaitis?

Years and miles mostly I'd guess

Doing a little research and it seems Te'o was moved to inside linebacker his JR year when ND went to a 3-4 defense. Up until that point he was an OLB. Guessing that's the role he'll fill here. He's good in coverage as well, so that's improved across the board with Robertson and Klein.

Could see more 4-2 fronts with 3 safeties on the field. Would make sense with the meetings with some of the top safeties

Isn't Te'o a song by Harry Belafonte about a Banana boat AND Laurinaitis is some sh1t you catch that makes your voice all scratchy?

Chorus

Te'o, Te-ay-ay-'o
Daylight come and he wan' go home
Te, he say Te, he say Te, he say Te, he say Te, he say Te-ay-ay-'o
Daylight come and he wan' go home

Work all night on a stopin' da run
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
Sack quarterback till thee morning come
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)

(chorus)

Come, Laurinaitis, tally me turnover
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
Come, Laurinaitis, tally me turnover
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)

(chorus)

It's six tackle, seven tackle, eight takle, bunch!
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)
Six tackle, seven tackle, eight takle, bunch!
(Daylight come and he wan' go home)

I liked him coming out of college. I never thought he should've been such a high pick but if he stays healthy this is a good signing. No one can say that we are not trying to improve the defense. I still think the biggest question mark is DE.

You forgot that guy from Canada. And I think we're down to only 7 TEs now. Seriously, it's nice to have a variety to choose from for once. Nolan probably said he wouldn't come here without a full toy chest to play with.
