Reuben Foster — Linebacker — Alabama

Speaking of players that are too talented to pass up, how about Reuben Foster?

I’m pretty sure every team that doesn’t draft Foster, will seriously question why they are passing on a player that proved to be extremely productive at Alabama.

(I don’t think his issues at the combine will cause him to fall in the draft.)

Foster is an extremely good tackler, that can also drop into coverage. He’s likely an outside linebacker, but a damn good one.

From NFL.com:

"Foster is a vicious hitter with elite playmaking range and an ability to toggle between 225 and 240 pounds. Athleticism gives him cover ability that former teammate Reggie Ragland never possessed. Has Pro Bowl potential as a 3-4 inside linebacker or a 4-3 weak-side linebacker, but concerns over his medical history could be a consideration, according to some teams"

I wouldn’t be too worried about Foster’s medical history — he played in all 30 games over the last two seasons for Alabama.
