What are his pro prospects? Definitely passes the #eyetest.
Lee's got the size (6-3 240), and the instincts. He is still 20 (turns 21 next week) and a senior. Just kills me that Grobe failed to redshirt him in 2013 (he was 17 when that season started) so he could make a handful of special teams tackles. Would benefit both Lee and the program if he could return next year.

Does he better translate as a strong safety at the next level or is speed an issue there?
I think he's got the size to play linebacker.
In all fairness, Grobe recruited Ejiofor, Lee, and Watson, our 3 best defensive players. I think you can talk about a lot of other factors with Grobe, but defensive recruiting is not one of them. The talent inherited was good from day one. Offense is a whole other story. I am concerned about the defense next year. Lots of holes to fill with a more difficult schedule.

That may be true, but if we had Chubb lined up opposite of Ejiofor, we are probably a top 25 team.
