Ronald Powell --> LaVar Arrington

You have to remember LaVar Arrington failed not for a lack of ability, but for a gross overstatement of one's stature. He failed because the expectations were too high. He was a very good player and had some injuries and when he couldn't live up to the "LaVar leap" craze he just quit and rode off into the sunset with tons of cash. I think Ronald Powell will be a very good NFL player and a sure-fire starter in the league. I think he could be your poor mans Jadeveon Clowney if you want a high potential playmaker that is a bit under the radar. I like Powell there more so than William Clarke DE WVU. Powell has a good initial burst and a relentless nature to his game. He is in position and has good side to side quickness. He is an ideal fit in a 3-4 on the ILB position. Hell, in Pittsburgh, this is great. You take a Jarvis Jones at OLB and you know what I think Ronald Powell can do more for you than Jarvis Jones and that's not his natural position. Sadly, this is true.
