Mayberry Listed as Sleeper

NFL Analyst Chris Steuber came up with his list of defensive sleepers. Here is what he had to say about Matt Mayberry.

A two-year starter at middle linebacker for Indiana, Mayberry led the Hoosiers in tackles the last two years, and this past season, he had a breakout year where he recorded 108 tackles, 11 for a loss, 5.5 sacks and three interceptions.
An underrated and fairly unknown prospect, the 6-foot-2, 236-pound Mayberry was a Scouting Combine snub last month, but made his presence felt at Indiana’s Pro Day. He put on a show during Indiana’s March 9th Pro Day and stunned representatives from 23 NFL teams with his 4.57 in the 40, 24 reps on the bench press and agility during drills. Mayberry is the 8th rated middle linebacker listed on Scout.com’s 2010 NFL Draft Rankings.
