Whitney Mercilus DE Illinois
6″4 265 4.58 40 Time
• Athletic DE that shows great speed off the line.
• Has great moves and can beat blockers with his speed and power.
• Gets to the QB fast but sometimes over pursues which allows RB’s to run past him.
• Good team leader and isn’t a discipline problem.
• Had 57 Tackles, 22.5 Tackles for loss, 16 sacks and 9 forced fumbles in 2011.
• Was selected first team All-Big Ten, First Team All American and Winner of the 2011 Ted Hendricks Award.
• Mercilus is a great looking prospect that can make an impact from day 1 and is almost a lock to go in the 2nd round and may move up to the 1st.
