Big-bodied edge defender with developmental upside at Western Carolina
John Julien is listed as a **6'5", 225-pound** defensive end for Western Carolina, which gives him the kind of length and frame that can matter on the edge if the strength and technique keep catching up. His profile is intriguing more for *projection* than proven production: he looks like a developmental fit who could bring size, reach, and room to add power, but publicly available team materials do not show recent stat output to judge current on-field impact. For a team, he’s worth watching as a long-term pass-rush and run-setting piece rather than an immediate finished product.[6][8]
