Vikings' exec Ryan Grigson raving about the team's last draft pick DL Levi Drake Rodriguez, and crediting area scout Blaine Gramer, a Minnesota native, with stumping for him in meetings.
"This guy is all about work, always has a smile on his face," Grigson said of Rodriguez

He goes 300lbs and can do a 5.01 40. Pretty good for his size. He is not 6'4". He measured in at 6'2" at the Combine, but he would be a grubber type at DE, so it doesn't matter.

I do not know his correct height and weight but I donβt think Rodriguez was a combine invite. So probably not measured there. Maybe a bowl game?

Only saw him play in one game. Super competitive; lots of energy for his size. Around 6'2" 298# they showed him on the film I watched. Very aggressive; they showed him coming in from the right side tackle spot; the run play went to the left; the dude chased the running back down 20 Yards+ down field and was in on the tackle; unbelievable motor. Most dudes his size wouldn't have made it half ways down, or would have gave up trying.
This guy looks like one of those gems we always talk about. He's got a lot of that Fiske and Carter in him. Just a non stop motor. Shorter arms like Fiske, but hey; it sure doesn't seem to matter much. The only thing is he did play at the lower level of competition; so we'll see.

I've looked at some game film on the guy, and yes, the level of competition he went up against was not...let's just say, it wasn't Division I caliber. It wasn't lower Division I either.
He would be a good candidate for the PS.
