tough, instinctive Tar Heels linebacker with NFL-ready motor
Power Echols was a three-year starter and team captain at North Carolina, and in the 2024 season he posted 76 tackles, 0.5 sacks, and 1 interception while continuing a career trend of high-volume production and steady playmaking. His calling card is feel for the game: quick diagnosis, strong pursuit, and a non-stop motor that shows up on every snap, even if he isn’t a classic thumper. He has been viewed as a solid coverage linebacker with above-average instincts, but scouts have noted size and block-shedding as the main questions. If a team wants a smart, energetic, tone-setting LB, he’s a pretty clean fit.
