Texas’ rugged, high-IQ trench grinder with captain energy
In the 2007 season, Derek Lokey was one of Texas’ most dependable interior defenders, posting 50 tackles, 9 tackles for loss, 1 sack, and 13 pressures while helping the Longhorns rank 8th nationally against the run at 93.4 yards per game. He stood out for his versatility, toughness, and leadership—an Academic All-American, team captain, and even a short-yardage/fullback and deep-snapping option. If you want a relentless, assignment-sound DT who brings brains, grit, and a little extra Swiss-army-knife flair, Lokey fits the bill.
