Angerer v Wheeler

Another nice entry from the new kid on the block

While Angerer also posted a 4.64 40-yard dash time at his Pro Day (same as Philip Wheeler) and is two inches short at 6-foot tall, he excelled against the pass in his two seasons as a starter at Iowa.  In those two seasons he managed six interceptions and 14 passes broken up.  He also accumulated 252 tackles in his two seasons as a starter and shows a mean streak, attacks the football, and can lay some big hits on unsuspecting ball carriers.

Despite the opportunity Angerer has to do something that is relatively rare for rookie linebackers who play for the Indianapolis Colts, expectations for him to win a starting position should be tempered with one caveat; the likelihood that Angerer starts the season with the first team defense is nearly non-existent.
