Ty'Ron Hopper is a player that could fit in with any team. All NFL teams need solid linebackers to help lock down the second level of the field. Hopper is a solid and physical linebacker who can plug holds created by offensive lines.

Hopper is a solid tackler but also has a good upside as a blitzer who can disguise his attack well. Hopper is similar to Buffalo Bills linebacker Matt Milano, having the body of a defensive tackle but playing like a linebacker.

The Minnesota Vikings could steal Hopper late int he draft and he could turn into a star on the field. The Vikings need depth at linebacker, but at a good price and this is a good way to get both.
