Andre' Woodson SELECTED BY: New York Giants Round 6(32)

SI Grade 3.65 GRADING SYSTEM

BIOGRAPHY: Three year starter awarded all-Conference honors the past two years. Senior passing totals included 63.1%/3709/40/11. Junior numbers included 63%/3515/31/7.

POSITIVES: Nice sized pocket passer with an NFL arm yet poor throwing mechanics. Patient in pocket, goes through receiver progressions and can drive the deep ball. Effortlessly makes the throw on the move, puts touch on passes when necessary or zips the ball between defenders. Possesses a quick release and the ball explodes out of his hand. Poised under pressure, does not make poor decisions and constantly looking downfield for targets. Does a good job leading the offense.

NEGATIVES: Throws with an elongated motion and sprays passes all over the field. Late on timing throws, over shoots downfield receivers or under throws intermediate passes. Consistently has receivers slowing up in routes or adjusting to catch errant passes.

ANALYSIS: Woodson has the physical skills and intangibles to play at the next level yet his poor pass placement and throwing mechanics will make it a struggle for him to succeed. He needs a lot of work from the ground up and it could be a long time before Woodson is NFL ready.

PROJECTION: Middle Third Round
