Whitney Mercilus, DE Illinois Scouting Report

Whitney Mercilus, DE Illinois [HT-6’4 WT-265 4.69 projected 40]

















Positives- Whitney is an above average sized Defensive End who has a non-stop motor and a bevy of pass rushing moves…Strong for his size (body type and arms)…Strong against the run (when in position) and can hold the edge.

Negatives- Athletically limited…Over peruses quite often and plays out of position on pass/run plays…Poor hips (non-fluid) and footwork…Not overly explosive and  relies on speed to make up after getting out of position…Is a one year wonder with little to no production his first two years…Struggles at times to play at pad level…With his over pursuit, he is knocked out of and off of the play more often than most.
