Bruce Irvin is a raw prospect with demonstrated ability as a pass-rusher. He's scouted a one dimension rush specialist that lacks versatility, as not close to being ready to drop into coverage..
In his final two seasons, Irvin recorded 22 sacks and forced five fumbles and that's it ! He's also a hybrid defensive end/linebacker. Irvin helped out with 61 tackles and if he didn't SACK the QB he didn't make any tackles for loss in 2010. Check out his number of tackles for loss last season. Because we run a 3-4 'D' he might fit and develop in time.
IMO....Bruce Irvin will have to fall to the very late rounds before TT would consider him.
Irvin has demonstrated an ability to overcome a tumultuous background but recent bad reports on him don't have him out of the woods. TT would have had to certainly be provided with an interview or some scrutiny of this prospect that would recommend Bruce Irvin.
As a First round pick at OUR #28 spot.
Sorry for his fans here but IMO .... NO!
