Fourth Round Selection: Jonathan Wilhite CB Auburn

April 28, 2008 · No Comments

JUCO transfer with tremendous speed.

Height: 5-91/2 | Weight: 185 | 40-Time: 4.38

Strengths:
Good athleticism…Great speed and quickness…Excellent feet…He has fluid hips to turn and run in coverage…Pretty tough and physical..Has good body control…Very aggressive with a terrific motor…Has a lot of experience against elite competition.

Weaknesses:
Average height and bulk…Poor awareness…Lacks a burst to close..Sub par hands and ball skills…Doesn’t make many big plays…Not a great tackler…Work ethic has been questioned..Needs technique work…Has durability issues…Upside is limited.

Notes:
Transfer from Butler County Junior College…A three-year starter in the SEC…Was overshadowed by David Irons and Patrick Lee during his college career but he’s a fine pro prospect in his own right…He probably profiles as more of a nickel or dime type at the next level…Underrated player who could be a nice late round surprise.
