Louisville’s 6-3, 248-pound edge defender with developmental upside
Michael Adams is listed by Louisville as a redshirt freshman defensive end in the 2025 season at 6-3, 248 pounds, which points to a classic edge-build with room to add strength and polish[1]. The big draw is the frame: he has the size to hold up on the edge and the developmental runway to become a disruptive run-stopper and pass-rush piece if his technique and burst catch up. For a team, that means upside over instant production—he looks like a fit if you want a young, physical DE to groom rather than a finished product[1].
