South Dakota State linebacker gaining interest Aaron Wilson
South Dakota State outside linebacker Danny Batten is set to visit the Cincinnati Bengals, Green Bay Packers, Miami Dolphins and the Indianapolis Colts, according to an NFL source with knowledge of the situation.
Batten has already visited the Baltimore Ravens
He's also set to conduct private workouts for the Philadelphia Eagles, St. Louis Rams and the Detroit Lions.
Buzz is growing about Batten, who worked out for a dozen teams last weekend in Arizona. Three linebacker coaches attended the session.
The 6-foot-2, 244-pounder did everything except for the bench press after turning in 30 repetitions of 225 pounds at his Pro Day workout.
NFL scouts clocked Batten in the 40-yard dash between 4.66 and 4.72 seconds.
He turned in a 7.04 three-cone drill, a 35-inch vertical leap, 10-03 broad jump and performed positional drills.
Batten is projected as a middle to later-round draft target. He recorded 85 tackles, nine sacks and 17 tackles for losses last season.
Batten excelled during the Texas vs. the Nation all-star game.
