Lindsey Witten DE Connecticut #9

Ht: 6'5
Wt: 248
Strengths:
An impressive athlete. Has the size and athleticism to play as a defensive end in a 4-3, or outside linebacker in a 3-4. A hard worker on and off the field. A scrappy player that holds up against bigger offensive linemen better than you would expect considering his size.
Weaknesses:
Limited experience; didn't a starting role until his senior year. Strength is marginal . Much better as a pass rusher than in run defense.
Comments:
Younger brother of Bills safety Donte Whitner. Witten is an intriguing prospect who could be a steal if he falls to the 3rd or 4th round. His limited experience gives teams reason to question his ability to play at the next level, but there's no denying his production as a senior. He may need some time to develop and bulk up a little, but could certainly earn a starting role in a year or two.
