What the analysts are saying

  • "It's been all downhill for Victor since breaking his leg with four games to go in 2016. He was overweight and ineffective for most of the season and looked like he was in cruise control before losing his job. He does have some quality tape in his background and he's a physical player, but will a team be willing to overlook his offseason weight gain and off-the-field behavior, including a November DUI?" - Lance Zierlein, NFL.com
  • "He is an instinctive, physical linebacker who not only will make a team, he'll contend for early playing time, with the raw talent to project as a future starter." - Rob Rang, NFLDraftScout.com
