Sometimes you get sidetracked when researching a topic. Sometimes you just know a player is going to be something special. While I know the first thing to be true by this post not being what I started to research yesterday, I just have one of those hunches for the second. But let me tell you, it's a really strong hunch. Kind of like when I wrote about Dylan Cole last year.
So who is Micah Kiser and why should the Patriots take him in round 3?
MEASURABLES- Kiser is an inside linebacker out of UVA with the following measurables:
  • ​6'2"
  • 240 lbs
  • 9 3/8" hands
  • 32" arms
  • 3 cone- 7.05 seconds
  • broad jump- 121"
  • vertical- 35.5"
  • 20 yard shuttle- 4.24 seconds
  • ​40- 4.66 seconds
STATISTICS AND AWARDS- Besides having a pretty good body for the position, he also has some pretty impressive college statistics and awards.

  • Led the ACC in tackles 3 years in a row
  • 2017 Campbell Trophy (college football player with best combination of academics, community service, and on-field performance)
  • 2017 Dudley Award (state's top D1 college football player)

MULTI-SPORT ATHLETE- You knew I would go there. In high school Micah also played basketball and lacrosse. As a lacrosse player he was viewed as one of the best in the state. With Micah attending high school in the state of Maryland, that's a pretty big accomplishment. Should he wanted to, the midfielder could have easily played lacrosse in college. According to his father, Micah was also a speedy swimmer at the age of 6.

CHARACTER- If the NFL draft was based on the character of the athletes, Micah would be gone early day one.
  • ​After the deadly protesting that occurred on UVA's campus last fall, Kiser gathered up his teammates to take back the campus by organizing a team photo on the Rotunda's steps.
  • After seeing two freshman arrive late for practice, the senior sent them home in true Bill Belichick fashion.
​If these two examples don't show you what a leader this guy is, it won't take but one search of his name to find many more.

FUN FACTS-
  • ​Kiser played high school football and basketball with Patriots cornerback Cyrus Jones. Jones graduated a year ahead of Micah.
  • ​Has a Bachelors in Foreign Affairs. This year he worked towards his Masters in Higher Education.
  • After football he plans to pursue a career as an athletic director.

Though we all know that Patriots is a team full of talented people already, they still need to add more people to their teams. Micah Kiser is definitely a great addition to the team that’s why patriots should really consider him. Well, if I am the only person to decide for this, I will definitely have him part of the first and final line up. There are so many things to look forward, In all fairness, Micah Kisser serves as an inspiration to the many, that’s why I love following him on Instagram!
