veteran Duke edge setter with a sturdy résumé and disruptive flashes
In the 2010 season, Patrick Egboh was a returning starting defensive end for Duke, praised by the staff for gaining strength and quickness and for being a proven asset when healthy. His value is the classic edge-defender package: experience, snap volume, and enough production to matter, including 34 tackles, 3.0 tackles for loss, 1.0 sack, six QB pressures and two pass breakups in 2009. He is the kind of steady, physical defensive end coaches trust to hold the edge, and the main question is durability rather than upside.
