JAKE SPRAGUE

Position: DE Class: Sr School: Wisconsin Conference: Big Ten Ht., Wt.: 6'2, 280 40 Time: 4.92 Grade: 3.33

BIO: Full-time starter as a senior, awarded honorable mention All-Conference honors after POSITIVES: totaling 57 tackles, nine tackles for loss with six sacks. Spent 2001 on the sidelines with a injured knee and backed-up the prior season yet still missed time with ankle problems. NEGATIVES: Speedy edge rusher whose development has been hampered by injuries the past three seasons. Plays with leverage, good body lean and rarely off his feet. Effective keeping opponents away with his hands, can twist or stunt and displays a closing burst of speed. Relentless pursuing of the ball carrier and chases to get involved in the action. ANALYSIS: Lacks the great first step off the snap, speed from the backside and strength at the point. Must beat opponents with his first move or he does not beat them at all. PROJECTION: Undrafted Free Agent
