Shane Ray was a chaos engine off the edge for Missouri
In the 2014 season, Shane Ray was a nightmare for offenses, leading the SEC with a Missouri single-season record 14 sacks and adding 21 tackles for loss, the kind of backfield disruption that screams “instant impact”[1][14]. Earlier at Missouri, he already flashed rare pass-rush juice as a reserve in the 2013 season with 39 tackles, 9 tackles for loss, 4.5 sacks, 11 quarterback pressures and 2 forced fumbles[1]. If you want a relentless, high-motor DL who can wreck a game with burst and leverage, Ray fit the bill—though his NFL path later showed the kind of durability and transition questions teams always have to weigh with edge rushers[1][4].
