Brandon Spikes ILB Florida #51

Ht: 6'3
Wt: 256
Strengths:
Adequate size and strength. Experienced at the highest level of competition; three-year SEC 1st-team selection. Great instincts. Does a nice job dropping into zone coverage. A hard hitter. Voted a team captain in both his junior and senior years. NFL bloodlines; cousin of Takeo Spikes.
Weaknesses:
Speed is below average. Overall athleticism is marginal. Suspended for one game in 2009 for attempting to gouge the eyes of a Georgia running back.
Comments:
Spikes has the ability to play in the NFL but his lack of speed and athleticism limits his ceiling. He's already fairly polished and shows excellent instincts, indicating that he'll make a smooth transition to the NFL. However, it may also mean he doesn't have much room for improvement. He's a safe pick in 2nd round, potentially even in the late 1st, but he lacks the upside of an elite prospect to go any higher.
