Rolando McLain is probably the best bet to put up big rookie numbers. He's an elite ILB that can play in either scheme.
Brandon Spikes could play well as a 3-4 ILB, but may be limited to a 2 down role.
Daryl Washington could be DeAndre Levy part II. If his time comes sooner rather than later who knows?
Navorro Bowman is being viewed as solely a 4-3 WLB, but I believe he may be a close second in terms on instincts and diagnosing to McLain. He will play in any scheme with the potential to kick inside and be a 3 down backer shortly. Easily my favorite sleeper in the class., but a huge risk for early FF production.
McLain is the only sure thing at the LB slot. He is in Patrick Willis's class as a prospect and just needs to find the right situation.
Eric Berry will be hard to overlook from the S spot. Could be a top 5 safety right out of the gate. The best safety prospect to come out since Reed/Polamalu.

Thanks for the info. Exactly the kind of stuff I was looking for.

Putting together a rough top 10 without much research yet. Here is how I am leaning:
1. Rolando McClain, ILB. The clear number one to me.
2. Brandon Spikes, ILB.
3. Eric Berry, DB
4. Taylor Mays, S
5. Earl Thomas, S
6. Derrick Morgan, DE
7. Sergio Kindle, DE/OLB
8. Joe Haden, CB (my league uses INTs and PDs in roto style)
9. Ricky Sapp, OLB
10. Navarro Bowman, OLB
Who are the next MLB's after the top two?

Daryl WashingtonPat AngererSean LeeMicah JohnsonThey're all long shots to say the least.Kindle and Mays are horribly overrated.

I am a USC. Mays will be exposed some in the NFL, coverage-wise. To me, he is a faster Roy Williams/Gibril Wilson, which could actually be fantasy gold. Kindle I have only seen play once, maybe twice, so that was more on rep and my league setup being roto with sacks as a category.treat88 said:

Seems to project more as an OLB in a 4-3 as a WLB.Not sure is he can play in a 3-4.If he lands in the right spot he could be very productive, seems like a more explosive version of Adibi or Sintim to me.
ADP

He is kind of small and I assume he will end up as nothing more than a backup/special teams player. Not sure he will ever turn into anything more than that. Most likely a 4-5th round pick in draft I would say right now depending on combine. But all in all, I don't see him going anywhere but 4th or later.

I dont want to knock anyone but if we are talking about FF stats in 2010 there is no way to project who will be an elite or even a starter until we see who drafts them?

100% agree.However, players as prospects can certainly be speculated on from a talent perspective.

Of course we are talking based on talent level. A couple years ago we knew Patrick Willis had the tools to be a stud no matter where he was drafted. Many people even thought that San Fransisco wasn't a great landing spot for him.
