2nd Round Big School Middle Linebackers: Gobble them up as fast as you can

John's latest post about Cam Heyward makes a great point; big school players can suffer from having too much tape. There is no position that is penalized more than middle linebacker. Below I have compiled a list of BCS-school linebackers drafted in the second round. The names in green all were starters for at least one year while the names in red did not end up being NFL starters. In case your wondering 23 of the 35 picks were starters for at least a year.
