Posluszny has good range sideline-to-sideline and decent speed. He is very sound in man coverage, and from his safety experience very sound in zone coverage. He is a stick-and-move type player who is always around the ball. He is a very instinctive player who has good awareness, Not a quick-twitch player , but he gets to the ball.


Biography:
Brother of Penn State linebacker Paul Posluszny

David, who claims to run a 4.6 forty, bench presses 300 pounds, squats 360 and power cleans 205.

Posluszny reports a 3.5 core GPA and is planning on taking his ACT in April and the SAT in May.

Posluszny: "I like to think of myself as a leader. I think that's my biggest strength on the field. My teammates can feel off of my intensity. I'm very smart on the field too. I need to work on my strength. Next year I'm moving to middle linebacker from the outside and I need to build my strength for that."
