a rangy, high-motor Tar Heel linebacker with proven production
Larry Edwards’ North Carolina profile points to a linebacker who played fast, produced early, and brought real backfield disruption; in the 2006 season, UNC listed him with 91 tackles, 8.0 tackles for loss, 1.5 sacks, and an interception, while the staff described him as having great lateral speed and recovery ability[4]. He was also labeled a Sporting News No. 18 outside linebacker nationally, which fits the picture of a smart, instinctive defender who can chase plays sideline to sideline[4]. If you want a linebacker who can move, diagnose, and make stops all over the field, Edwards looks like the kind of fit coaches love.
