former Harvard linebacker with a disruptive, assignment-sound edge
In the 2007 season, Peter Ajayi was a 6'3", 225-pound junior linebacker for Harvard, and his profile points to a bigger, stronger defender who had already developed from a first-year end into a front-seven piece. Harvard’s own roster history lists him as a junior LB in 2007, while contemporary coverage described him as part of a blitzing Crimson defense and credited him with 69 career tackles, 16 tackles for loss, and 8.5 sacks by late 2008. The fit question is simple: if you want a physical, pressure-minded linebacker who can impact plays behind the line, he looked like a classic take-no-prisoners Crimson defender.
