    Nice write up on ILB AJ Klein:

    Tools

    At 6'1" 250 with 32-7/8" arms and big 10-1/4" hands, Klein is a formidable presence in the middle and well-proportioned for NFL play. His 4.66 40 at the combine is faster than his speed on tape, as are his 4.35 short shuttle and 7.09 three-cone times from his pro day. Klein looks like an average NFL athlete at linebacker at best.

    Intangibles/Character

    A team captain and hustle player on the field, Klein also made plays all over the field and returned four interceptions for touchdowns during his career. He has a high football IQ, and Klein is clearly a quick-thinker when the bullets are flying.

    Not exactly a ringing endorsement...

    He's a good player, but most likely not a high draft pick. Players who aren't considered high draft picks don't often get ringing endorsements, so it's a bit foolish to expect one in the article.
