The Skinny:
Dre Greenlaw is one of the more inspiring stories to come out of Arkansas in a long time. After spending six years as a ward of the state of Arkansas, Greenlaw was adopted, became a standout high schools linebacker, and went on to be one of the most dependable Hogs on defense. He earned All-Freshman honors, and was very productive when he could avoid the injuries that plagued his playing career. Back and healthy, he projects to be a special teams player, but has the work ethic to be more.
Projected Round:
Seventh Round or Priority Free Agent
Who Would He Be If He Was An Avenger:
Spider-Man
