I'll post a few profiles of guys I would like to get a look in the third round. This guy reminds me of Antwaan Odom.

Wallace Gilberry
DE | (6'2

| All Ranked Players

and have access to the exclusive draft content below.
Strengths: Possesses adequate-to-good height and bulk. Is tough, aggressive and active versus the run. Hands continue to improve and he does a decent job of getting off blocks, finding the ball and pursuing. Generally displays good leverage out of his stance. He is a good open-field tackler for his position. Displays good initial pop and will stand some OT's up with his short area explosiveness. He displays some quality power moves as a pass rusher. Plays with a great motor. Excellent experience at the highest collegiate level. He also has been exceptionally durable and reliable throughout his career.

Weaknesses: Lacks any elite qualities. Does not display good top-end speed or closing burst as a pass rusher. Will struggle to turn the corner as an edge rusher and will never be much of a threat in that facet of the game. Plays power-DE in college but does not possess elite size and will need to improve his base in order to contribute as a situational run-plugger type. Gets good initial pop but will struggle to anchor versus bigger, stronger OT's.

Overall: Gilberry was redshirted when he arrived in 2003. During his first three seasons (2004-06) he played in 37 games (25 starts) and recorded 108 tackles, 33.5 tackles for loss and 11.5 sacks. Gilberry is a tough, aggressive, durable and reliable college player that continues to improve each season. He will give a great effort and maximizes his skills. He is at his best versus the run and should find a way to contribute for a NFL team on a sub-package basis. However, Gilberry will never be much of a threat as a pass rusher and he lacks any special physical qualities to get excited about when projecting him to the next level. Even if he maximizes his tools in the NFL he will never be more than a situational run-stopping reserve. As such, Gilberry projects as a mid-round pick in 2008.
