So far he seems like Abdul Hodge. Perfect linebacker in college. Too slow to play anything more than two downs in the NFL. But barring injury, I think he finds a way to stick. Not worth a 2nd or 3rd round pick.
Chris Borland is going to be a solid NFL starter and is worthy of a round 2 or 3 draft pick
Borlans is overrated in here. He's just not talented enough...botom line
I don't have the stones to post my opinion

Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
I think he has a good chance to be better than Hodge if he doesn't have Hodge's knee problems.Originally Posted by pbmax

But even before the knee issue, he had trouble breaking into the lineup. He could have stuck around, but I didn't see solid starter.

Hodge....really ? Dude did not have the heart Borland did...didn't put forth the time to study and work as hard as Borland does. I don't see that comparison.
LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?
You might want to read up on Hodge's upbringing and college career. I'm not saying Borland doesn't have a ton of heart and great work ethic, but so did Hodge coming into the league. He was a multi-year team captain and won the team's Extra Heartbeat Award his senior year. 2nd in the nation in tackles, great student, heady player, etc. etc.... Heart and mind is what made both of them great college players.

The extra heartbeat award? Sounds like he needed to see a cardiologist.

Sounds like Borland had a genetic pre-disposition to win the Extra Heartbeat award. UNSOUND!
Five heartbeats is even better!

Wrong again!
