Anthony Scirrotto
6-0/202 Penn State
4.56 Senior
Pros: Does a nice job coming up and defending the run as he's willing to stick his neck and make a hit. Does a nice job wrapping. Is decent when working in centerfield or zone coverage.
Cons: Undersized as a tackler. Lacks pop and doesn't get good base, which causes him to get run over a lot at the point of attack. Takes poor angles to the ball. Doesn't have ideal ball skills and subpar awareness in zone. Always seems a step late breaking on the ball.
Overview: He's a serviceable starter in college, but seems overmatched physically for the pro game. Three year starter. Was arrested in April 2007 for an off-campus fight. Pled guilty and served community service with a fine.
NFL Forecast: He can potentially make a solid impact on special teams. But he's too small as of now to play on defense and just average in coverage. If he gets bigger and stronger he could be a decent reserve, but the upper end of his potential is about as good a player as Matt Giordano. I think he can impact on special teams which should give him potentially a relatively long NFL career, able to play five or six seasons. But I think he'd be overmatched as a starter. He reminds me of a smaller and weaker version of Tom Zbikowski. Doesn't have the playmaking instincts that Zbikowski had and just was physically overmatched against better competition in college. It only gets worse in the pros.
ATL Forecast: The Falcons might think of adding him to potentially address depth at free safety, but he's just going to be a special teams guy. Might be able to excel in that role, but lacks upside that is really worth developing defensively. In a few years might be a serviceable short-term stopgap in case of injury. But if he has to start more than a game or two, you're probably in trouble.
Value: He can potentially add depth, but his lack of upside doesn't mean I'm liable to draft him.

Galerie Lelong Presents Nancy Spero's FROM VICTIMAGE TO LIBERATION, 1/2-2/9
Nancy Spero's (1926–2009) groundbreaking career spanned more than fifty years. Spero's best known works include her politically-charged War Series and Artaud Paintings of the late 1960s and early 1970s, and her extensive scroll works such as the Codex Artaud (1971-1972) and Notes in Time on Women (1979). Her installation Maypole/Take No Prisoners was presented at the Venice Biennale in 2007, and her last monumental scroll work Cri du Coeur was shown at the 2010 Bienal of Sao Paolo. She was also featured in the Gwangju Biennale (2000), Whitney Biennial (1993), and Documenta X (1997). Major monographic exhibitions of Spero's work have been shown at the Museo d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona; Centro Galego de Arte Contemporanea, Santiago de Compostela, Spain; de Appel Arts Centre, Amsterdam; Institute of Contemporary Art, London; Kunsthalle zu Kiel, Germany; and Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago. Spero's most recent retrospective was organized in 2010 by the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, and traveled to the Serpentine Gallery in London in March 2011. Kunst Sammlung Nordrhein Westfalen in Dusseldorf, Germany presented her War Series in January 2012. An illustrated catalogue, with an essay by New York Times and ARTnews contributor Hilarie M. Sheets, is published to accompany From Victimage to Liberation and will be available in January.
The gallery is located on West 26th Street between 10th and 11th Avenues in Chelsea (528 West 26th Street, New York, NY 10001). Hours are Tuesday - Saturday, 10am - 6pm. Call 212 315 0470, email email@example.com or visit www.galerielelong.com for more information.
