The Atlanta Falcons selected Vic Beasley with the eighth overall pick in the 2015 NFL draft, and he posted four sacks during his rookie season. Still, he's on track to be an impact pass-rusher.
Most of the knocks on him are anecdotal. Early in his college career at Clemson, he was a tight end after playing running back in high school. His size (6'3", 235 lbs at the time) gave him the "tweener" label and led some to question whether a non-blue-blood defender was worth a top-10 pick.
At the NFL combine, Beasley showed up at 246 pounds and stole the show as an athlete.
