Although he is big for his position at265 pounds, linebacker Mike Kudla runs the 40 in 4.7, and also broke the Combine record for repetitions in the bench pressin February. But he is far more than a physical specimen -- Kudla was very productive at Ohio State, getting 9.5 sacks last season, tied with teammate A. J. Hawk for second best in the Big Ten.
Despite his exceptional combination of athleticism and productivity, Kudla went undrafted, signing as a free agent with Pittsburgh. Today the Steelers cut Kudla. He didn't even make it to the first pre-season game.
