Despite his humble beginnings, Joe Schobert is ready to get his NFL career started, and Green Bay has expressed interest in the Wisconsin native.
If the Green Bay Packers want a linebacker who can rush the passer, play the run, and cover in space, they may not need to look very far from home.
Wisconsin linebacker Joe Schobert was a big play machine in Madison over the past two years, and he will look to bring that splash ability to the NFL. A bit on the smaller side for an edge rusher at 6' 1-3/8" and 244 pounds, Schobert, who played on the outside in Wisconsin's 3-4 defense, said that some 3-4 teams have approached him about moving inside at the NFL level.
