I remember Earnest Rhone with the Dolphins. If this guy is anything like his old man, we have landed a stud!

Re: ANTHONY RHONE: Like father, like son?
we've got depth at LB so that makes it easier to take on a guy that is projected to get bigger, faster, etc...especially when he has a high football IQ

Seems like a lot of guys we're recruiting have a high football IQ, which never hurts. This guy could be extremely crucial, with Pope and Joyner graduating.
