FSU veteran DT defined by toughness, not just tackles
Cedric Wood is a physically imposing, high-effort defensive tackle who brought proven production to Florida State, including 27 tackles and 1.0 sack in the 2019 season, but his bigger differentiator is resilience after a life-altering injury that required major rehab and left him with nerve damage in his hand. That injury history matters: it explains why evaluations of him go beyond box-score stats and focus on toughness, persistence, and whether his body can handle the load. If you need a blue-collar interior lineman with real grit, he fits the mold.
