Asa Newsom

Has the body type to grow into a bigger college linebacker. Has experience at safety, backer and as a skill player on offense. Shows the ability to run to the ball. May not have elite top end, but gets to where he needs to and has good short are movement. Has room to add weight and strength. Solid wrap-up tackler but would like to see him explode through his contact more. Has the length and athletic tools to be very good in coverage. Has upside and can be an excellent college linebacker but needs some physical and positional development.
