Needs to toughen up.Can take poor angles.Needs to strengthen the mental portion of his game.Some maturity concerns.Let’s see his workHow He Would Fit On The RedskinsWorthington is being talked about as a possible Day 3 steal - a safety who has, at times, displayed impressive athleticism - but who has also struggled with maturity and health issues. Given the Redskins current situation, with Landon Collins etched in stone as the starting SS, and Montae Nicholson the presumed starter at FS - if he avoids suspension - it’s interesting that Nicholson is one of the comps for Worthington offered up by scouting experts.His ability to play either safety position, and his apparent need for some additional “seasoning” before he starts in the NFL could make the Redskins an ideal landing spot for him. Like Nicholson, Worthington appears to possess the physical tools to be a starting NFL safety, but needs to be provided the tutelage to get better at reading offenses and anticipating QBs. Given the relative lack of depth of safeties - particularly free safeties - in this draft [url=www.redskinsjerseypr… Jurgensen Jersey[/url] , Worthington could be a very interesting late round project and eventual Nicholson replacement for the Redskins. Both teams coached by members of the Gruden family can be forced to appear on this year’s edition of and Washington head coach Jay Gruden made a suggestion to producers on Wednesday.His suggestion was that they select the Raiders team coached by his brother Jon if they were looking for the most entertaining selection.“If they were smart, they’d go to Oakland,” Gruden said, via Tarik El-Bashir of TheAthletic.com. “Seriously, what an entertainment value that would be. Antonio Brown, Jon Gruden, Paul Guenther, Vontaze Burfict, [Richie] Incognito … They’d be crazy not to go to Oakland.”Gruden is not the first to make that suggestion, but the Giants, 49ers and Lions could also be compelled to do the show.Gruden said that while it would “initially be a distraction” if his team was chosen, he believes they’d be able to make it work in a way that allows them to also accomplish their goals in training camp. He added that “they can do us next year,” which led a reporter to respond by saying that they can’t compel an appearance if Washington makes the playoffs.“If we don’t make the playoffs, I probably won’t be here anyway so …,” Gruden said, via NBC4 in Washington.It’s not clear when this year’s chosen team will be revealed.
