Jonathan Newsome (6-3, 215), Defensive end (Cleveland/Glenville)
It's hard to say Newsome's stock went down because he graded out fairly close to where we had him off our film reviews (76). We were looking forward to getting a good look at the Ohio State offer at defensive end, but unfortunately, he decided to compete with the outside linebackers most of the day and was not really impressive.
While he showed a good motor and a great frame for continued physical development, he struggled moving laterally in space and looked a bit stiff trying to mirror running backs in open-field drills.
If the Ohio native decides to commit to the Buckeyes, we feel it will be strictly as a defensive end, and he will need a lot of work in the OSU weight room to physically develop.
