I see him kind of as the Werner guy for the Saints at the next level. Really explosive downhill tackler and flashes ability to cover at times. Disappears a lot due to elite game speed but plays with a ton of energy.

I think Weeks can be a starter in the league but probably not a 3-down 'backer like Demario Davis(since I'm using Saints comps)

He was very good this year, if he dominates a couple more games next season and stays consistent he might surprise a few people with where he’s drafted

Why all the downvotes? WTF?

It’s a legit question. I’m not doggin’ him. I’m just wondering if he’s an NFL prospect.

Not all players are NFL prospects, but some are sure fire, some are borderline.

Buncha dicks.

LINKThe biggest concern in this game was the injury to Whit Weeks, after the game Brian Kelly told everyone that Weeks dislocated his ankle, he'll have surgery, and they hope he can return in time for Spring ball.

He is a bit slow. He's a thumper with a motor who may be a couple decades too late. But I love watching him play and speed isn't everything so he just might have a great career anyway

I think Whit Weeks WILL be a starter AND a three down backer in the NFL. My guess, at this point, is a second round draft choice.

He should get drafted, but He’s not a 3 down linebacker. He struggles in coverage. I think his path to moving up draft boards is to show more as a pass rusher.

Dislocated

Means fracture dislocation. The ankle doesn’t dislocate unless you break 2-3 of the bony ends of the tibia/fibula. He has a trimallelor fracture and will need plates & screws to fix it.

He’s still young. That’s the last thing to come to most LBers.
