A ball-hawking Rutgers DB with proven playmaking instincts
Eddie Grimes stands out for his coverage awareness and opportunistic playmaking; in the 2003 season for Rutgers, he logged 41 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss, 1.5 sacks, and an interception that he returned 51 yards, a nice snapshot of a defender who can impact multiple phases of the game. He also drew praise in game coverage for jump-starting Rutgers’ defense with timely stops and a well-timed pick, which suggests a competitive, heads-up style that fits aggressive secondary play.
