“(Ohio State S) Donte Whitner is the last guy moving. His angles are bad. He can cover on the short end but not on the top end. He’s (Patriots 2005 fourth-round pick) James Sanders. He has no instincts. He is aggressive, tough, can close to the ball. He’ll hit you and support the run, but I didn’t like his key and diagnose. He’s not a half safety. You need some special goggles to evaluate if you think he’s a half safety. He’s choppy in his movement. He can run and he’s fearless, but he’s not Bob Sanders moving at the snap. And little safeties wear down.”
I have no problem with a top Safety but this was a little disconcerting. It was from an anonymous scout, btw.
It's from Pro Football Weekly's Inner Circle that we got the password from the draft magazine.PATSNUTme said:I do remember reading that a while ago but can't remember where, I've read so much stuff,maybe too much. Where did that come from?

There's been a little step backwards from this with people wondering if he'll have a shorter career than normal due to possible arthritis or other long term complications. This may be scouts out-thinking themselves but I think he is trending down just a little.bakes781 said:His combine workout proved he's recovered
