Georgia LB has three workouts this week Aaron Wilson
University of Georgia linebacker Akeem Dent has a private workout with New York Giants linebackers coach Jim Hermann today, according to a league source with knowledge of the situation.
Following a strong Pro Day and moving up on draft boards, Dent has three private workouts this week
The Baltimore Ravens previously conducted a private workout with Dent meeting with Ravens linebackers coach Dean Pees.
The second-team All-Southeastern Conference selection has a total of seven private workouts, per our source.
The 6-foot-1, 242-pounder has played inside linebacker and outside linebacker and is regarded as a good fit for 4-3 or 3-4 schemes.
He has been clocked in the 40-yard dash in 4.68 seconds.
At the NFL scouting combine, Dent registered a 37 1/2 inch vertical leap and bench pressed 225 pounds 24 times.
He also posted a 10-03 broad jump.
Dent led the Bulldogs last season with 126 tackles, 6 1/2 for losses to go with 2 1/2 sacks and two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.
He was named to the East-West Shrine all-star game.
