(Brian Blanco/Getty Images)After starring at linebacker for Alabama, Reuben Foster was projected by many NFL draft analysts as a top-10 pick. Schefter said that Foster, having done team interviews Friday, was set for some “team tests” on Saturday, but instead he will fly back to Tuscaloosa. Foster, a 6-1, 228-pounder who won the Butkus award as the nation’s top college linebacker, will have another chance soon to make a better impression on NFL scouts. According to NFL.com’s profile, he is “a vicious hitter with elite playmaking range,” and he has “Pro Bowl potential as a 3-4 inside linebacker or a 4-3 weakside linebacker.”
