NFL Draft Player Profile: John Theus

After facing a steep learning curve early in his career John Theus matured into an all-SEC player. Will his onfield performance be enough to overcome some questions about his strength

John Theus played in all 53 games of his University of Georgia career, starting 48 of them. He was honorable mention All-SEC as a junior and first team All-SEC as a senior. He was voted a permanent team captain by teammates, after holding Lombardi Award-wining defensive end Carl Nassib without a single tackle in Georgia's TaxSlayer Bowl victory.

Yet while Nassib is being pegged as high as the second round in this weekend's draft, Theus is viewed as likely no higher than a fifth round pick.
