BIOGRAPHY: Two-year starter who posted career-high numbers of 78/13.5/5 last season after 29 tackles as a junior.

POSITIVES: Athletic linebacker coming off a terrific senior campaign. Breaks down well, fast to the sidelines, and moves well on his feet. Explodes up the field, gives a lot of effort, and a willing volunteer in run defense. Displays solid playing speed and flashes on the scene.

NEGATIVES: Does not consistently play under control and pursues the action too aggressively. Struggles in coverage and does a lot of face-guarding down the field. Slow shedding blocks.

ANALYSIS: Guyton comes off a career season in which he improved almost every aspect of his game. He needs to show better recognition in coverage, yet he flashes enough ability to get consideration in the late rounds.

PROJECTION: Early Fifth Round
