Lengthy Alabama A&M DL with untapped upside
Eldridge is a 6-foot-5, 245-pound defensive lineman who gives Alabama A&M a big-frame edge presence with developmental upside. In the 2025 season, he was credited with 5 tackles and 0.5 tackles for loss, and his limited game logs suggest he’s still carving out a larger role[1][4]. The appeal is his size, active motor, and projectable pass-rush frame; the caution flag is that he’s still more of a growth-stock defender than a finished product, so he fits best with a program willing to develop tools and patience[1][7].
