Official Bio
|
Strengths:
Extremely productive...Very athletic...Excellent timed speed...Terrific range...Quick with a burst...Smart with good awareness and instincts...Decent tackler who hits surprisingly hard...Has fluid hips and does a nice job in coverage....A hard worker.
Weaknesses:
Exceptionally undersized and needs to put on a lot of weight...Has trouble taking on and shedding blockers...Struggles to fight through traffic...He's not stout at the point and can be run at...Has to get stronger...Is not an ideal fit for every scheme.
Notes:
Name is pronounced “WOOD-yard”...A cousin, Ashante Woodyard, played football at Purdue...There's a lot to like about this guy but his lack of size is a monumental negative...Could make it in the right situation (Tampa Bay, Indy, etc.) but he might never be more than a backup and special teamer...Classic case of a terrific college player who simply doesn't project well to the NFL due to some physical limitations.
