Doug Worthington
Round 7, Pick 242
Position: DT
Class: 5Sr
School: Ohio State
Conference: Big Ten
HT: 6-5
WT: 292
40 Time: 4.93
Biography: Three-year starter who posted 42/5/2 as a senior after junior totals of 34/5/1.5.

Positives: Nice-sized defensive lineman with potential at tackle or as a two-gap end. Breaks down well, plays with good lean, and does a reasonably good job holding his ground against double team blocks. Quickly gets his hands up to protect himself, displays solid overall strength, and pushes blockers up the field. Remains disciplined with assignments and works hard.

Negatives: Marginal speed and not much of a pass rusher. Struggles getting free from blocks.

Analysis: Worthington has been a solid player for Ohio State and is a defensive lineman best occupying blockers rather than making plays on the ball. He possesses a solid frame which can easily in more bulk. Worthington has potential to be used in several systems at the next level and is a prospect with a nice degree of upside potential.

Projection: 3-4
