Miami’s edge-flip with real juice: DeAnthony Lafayette brings production, length, and twitch
DeAnthony Lafayette is a 2026 EDGE who committed to Miami after flipping from LSU, and the fit is obvious: he pairs disruptive burst with strong production, including 2025 season totals of 30 tackles for loss and 17.5 sacks, plus a huge final year at Lake Nona. He’s rated as a consensus four-star prospect and ranked among the nation’s better edge defenders, with evaluators pointing to his stand-up JACK/EDGE versatility, motor, and multi-sport athleticism. In short: if your team wants a twitchy, high-upside pressure creator who already knows how to wreck a backfield, this is your guy.
