Lee, listed at 6 feet 2 and 236 pounds, had 11 tackles for a loss and two sacks last season. He also participated in pass coverage, intercepting one throw and breaking up eight other passes.
Lee was a fifth-year senior. He missed the 2008 season because of a torn anterior-cruciate ligament in the right knee. His play improved during the season, and Lee had a stellar performance in Penn State's victory over LSU in the Citrus Bowl.
In a pre-draft conversation, MIke Mayock of the NFL Network praised Lee for being ``smart, instinctive, a good solid football player. He makes plays.''
I've been 100 percent for a long time now," the 6-2, 236-pound Lee said during a conference call with Valley Ranch media, acknowledging that the knee still bothered him early last season.
Lee said several teams told him that they were concerned about his health, not his ability. He understands that line of thinking but prefers to look at the situation the other way.
I admit confusion at another LB as a pick.
Can we now assume that last year picks are considered a waste.
I hope that Lee is slated to play in the middle.
Brookings is old and Bradie James is well....James.

I'm happy to see Dallas going with their board and picking the best player they feel is available.
