2015 NFL Scouting Combine:   2/17/15 – 2/23/15 – NFL Network

Linebackers – Work out on 2/22/15

4.  Vic Beasley,  OLB – Clemson (6-3, 235) Projected Round – Top 20.  Vic Beasley may have the quickest first step of any edge rusher in the draft.  he has a good lean in his rush and when combined with his burst it can gave college offensive tackles nightmares.  However, at just 235 pounds Beasley is very small and that might be a problem in the NFL.

What to Watch for?  Bench press and his Weight.  Vic Beasley needs to come in to the combine weighing more than 235.  if he can come in weighing in the 245 pound range that will increase his stock and he also needs to do well in the bench press.
