PROSPECT PROFILE 

WILLIE MIDDLEBROOKS 
CORNERBACK
MINNESOTA 
6'2  200  4.25

 
 
 
Willie Middlebrooks is the prototype Corner. He is tall (6'2) and can run with receivers. He is also a good tackler. Middlebrooks had an injury in his Junior year that kept him out of some games so not a lot of people have seen him in action. When healthy, he is an aggressive and physical player. He likes playing up at the line. He doesn't always seem to be instinctive or focused. He will need to concentrate harder to make it as a pro. Middlebrooks' decision to enter the draft was a questionable one. If he returned he could have pushed himself into the top 10 by next April. Still, his physical skills are hard to ignore and he should be a late 1st Rounder.
