Surprised they want another LB for special teams considering they already have two very good STers at the position in Alexander and Humber

Alexander needs to get off Teams if you want him to continue to contribute at a high level on defense

As someone else mentioned in a different thread. We're not drafting combine warriors and seem to prefer guys who were actually productive in college:

 

12/26/16 - 2016 ALL-ACC FOOTBALL HONORABLE MENTION (7 OR MORE VOTES/COACHES): LB Matt Milano, Sr., Boston College (9),...Milano earned All-ACC honorable mention honors for the second consecutive season after starting all 12 games as a senior in 2016. The Florida native is fourth on the team with 55 tackles and is tied for the team-lead with 40 solo stops. Milano is fourth on the team with 9.5 tackles-for-loss and totaled five sacks on the season.

Doesn't look like a starter but could be a good special-teamer and useful role player.

From a scouting report:

 

He's not a physical freak, but Milano did enough at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis to get some attention. He was 3rd among LBs in the bench press, putting up 225 pounds 24 times. And he was 4th among the LB group in the broad jump, going 10'6.

 

No t a physical freak but he does that at the combine?? Seems pretty freakish to me. Could be a very good passing down sideline to sideline roamer.
