Redskins Select LB Martrell Spaight
Spaight (6-0, 236 lbs) started 13 games in 2014 and was named first-team All-SEC while leading his team in tackles (128). Scouts Take:Was a two-time JUCO All-American. Plays downhill and will attack his gap. Physical at line of scrimmage and had several tackles for losses. Sees past blockers and displays good ball awareness. Uses his hands to disengage from blockers and is a leverage linebacker. Aggressive in man coverage toward the boundaries. Spaight played two years of JUCO football and started just two games as a junior at Arkansas. This past season was his first as a full-time starter and he is still learning the nuances of the position. He’s physical and productive between the tackles, but might be limited when asked to make plays on the perimeter.PRO DAY RESULTS 40-yard dash: 4.80 and 4.83 seconds Broad jump: 9 feet, 6 inches Three-cone drill: 7.10 seconds
