I think he's playing as good as senior BBK right now, they're different players though. BBK a little quicker/faster, Eddie more physical w/ pash rush skills. Would have been nice to see them together, or really any two good linebackers together for once.

BBK caused a lot of TOS his senior year IIRC, that’s the biggest difference right now. Ulo should get there (and I realize there’s some fluky aspect to it).
Ulos definitely a superior pass rusher and hitter, BBK was better in pass coverage and rangier. Different strengths as you noted.

He pretty much maxed out his college potential given the cards he was dealt with.
If he was 2-3 inches taller and 25-30 lbs heavier he'd be playing linebacker regularly in the nfl.
At the end the only complaint about BBK was his lack of ideal size and being driven back sometimes at the point of contact. Imagine that.
