Corey Wootton-DL-Player Mar. 29 - 7:24 pm et Northwestern DE Corey Wootton ran in the 4.93-4.95 range in the forty-yard dash at the Wildcats' Monday Pro Day. Wootton's ten-yard splits of 1.66 and 1.71 seconds were more impressive. He also had a 32" vertical and 9-foot long jump. At 6'6/272, Wootton's best fit is probably at end in an up-tempo 3-4 defense like the Jets' or Cowboys'. Source: TFY Draft Insider http://www.rotoworld.com/content/Home_NFL.aspx Hey guys I was just on rotoworld and this caught my eye since it mentions the Jets in it. I don't know anything about this guy so was hoping someone could fill me in. When is he projected to go and do you think he'd be a good fit for us considering we lost Douglas and need another end?
I've loved Wootton's potential, his productivity has been streaky, injuries playing a big part. Needs to step his game in the NFL. Some have Wootton projected in late Rd 1....that's a stretch. Could be an optoin in late Rd 2 for the Jets.
Wootton's an oversized 4-3 end. The guy is mediocre-at-best against the run. For a guy his size, he plays incredibly soft. I think he's got the potential to be a decent player in the 4-3, but I don't like him as a 3-4 end.
Alright guys thanks for your insight on him. I guess we'll have to see how the draft plays out from here.
I love him as a second rounder in the 3-4. Kid plays hard all the time. He will need a year to develop.
