Small man, small school, huge production

Okay, I know the Colts have a reputation for giving chances to undersized players, but this is just ridiculous. They held a private workout with Mike Czerwien DE Waynesburg (5080, 225, e4.55). Yup, 5'8. Yeah, and Waynesburg.

When a player is either small or went to a small school (Wayneburg is D3), he had better produce. Let's take a look at Czerwien's stats to see if he did:

2007: 61 tackles, 29 assists, 34.5-199 TFL, 23-173 sacks, 5 PBU, 1 forced fumble
2006: 43 tackles, 25 assists, 18.5-74 TFL, 11-62 sacks, 1 forced fumble, 1-0-0 fumble recovery, 1 blocked kick
2005: 34 tackles, 29 assists, 17-76 TFL, 9.5-55 sacks, 1 forced fumble 1-6-0 fumble recovery, 1 blocked kick
2004: 33 tackles, 19 assists, 17-96 TFL, 10-76 sacks, 2 PBU

Okay, the guy is a man among boys. Speed and power (despite his size) off the edge and just an ability to play football.

To tell you the truth, I have seen almost nothing of this kid. I'll call his AD tomorrow to find out a little more about him. Stay tuned.
