Clemson's Ben Boulware owns NFL draft anaylst on Twitter

Joshua S. Kelly-USA TODAY Sports

Ben Boulware is one of the few starting defenders on Clemson returning for the 2016 season, but that didn't stop an entertaining Twitter exchange between the junior linebacker and NFL draft analyst Jon Ledyard about his pro prospects.

Ledyard responded to a follower's question about Boulware's potential by saying he's not a top prospect due to a "short, squatty frame with minimal tackle radius and limited athleticism."

To be fair to Ledyard, the question came after a tweet in which he praised Boulware, but that didn't stop the Tigers standout from firing back with two awesome responses.

It seemed to be all in good fun, as Ledyard admitted he would love to see Boulware succeed at the next level, but let this serve as a warning to future critics of the Clemson star's work.
