Washington Redskins 2020 Draft Profiles: Patrick Queen, LB, LSU

Patrick Queen

Linebacker

Height: 6’1”

Weight: 227 lbs.

LSU

Strengths:

Patrick Queen is a national champion and one of the top-rated defensive players in the draft class due to his instincts and high football IQ in addition to his closing speed and strength. He is at his best at the heart of the defense and can move across the field effectively. Queen has the physicality, toughness and explosiveness to set the tone defensively, and he’s very competitive.

Weaknesses:

There aren’t many tangible knocks on Queen, but some believe his small sample size — 16 starts for LSU — could mean he’s too good to be true.
