2008 NFL Draft Watch: Xavier Adibi

Written by Shirlene Alusa-Brown | April 22, 2008 | Leave a Comment

Xavier Adibi is the kind of player that gets hurt in a game on Monday, and comes back on Thursday to make 8 tackles, including 2 sacks. That’s the kind of player you want in the NFL. He was part of the Hokies most successful linebacker tandems and some have called him one of the best linebackers in college football. His speed is an asset to any team, as is his ability to rush effectively. Speculation is that he will make it to the second round only but that remains to be seen.
