  • Stock is Rising : Good showing in Senior Bowl practices
  • 03/04/07 - Yahoo!Sports: #4 OLB- Stewart Bradley, Nebraska - A full-sized (6-foot-3, 245 pounds) linebacker compared to the others ranked among the Top 5 here, Bradley has very good upper-body strength and improved footwork in the agility drills.
      Bradley has a tendency to get high off the snap, exposing himself as a pass rusher. He's a little stiff in his back pedal, but generally can cover ground and play with good natural instincts. He works hard to keep himself alive and in the play. He doesn't have an overwhelming presence on game film, but by game's end, he will have his fair share of tackles.
      He can be used more at the next level as a blitzer and probably have good success. He has good intangibles and should stand out on special teams early.
      A team could turn its attention to Bradley – the next best strong-side linebacker on the board – if it's unable to get into the range to select Lawrence Timmons. There could also be several 3-4 based teams that view him as a solid prospect for a position inside thanks to his size and smarts.
