BYU’s Brett Keisel: powerful, productive, and built for trench work
Keisel was a sturdy BYU defensive lineman whose best college season came in 2001, when he earned All-MWC recognition after posting 41 tackles, 9 tackles for loss, 3 sacks, and 3 pass breakups; across his BYU career, he finished with 66 tackles, 19 tackles for loss, and 8 sacks. He stood out for disruptive play, edge-setting toughness, and a high-motor style that translated beyond the box score. If you want a rugged, experienced line presence with proven production and NFL-caliber upside, he’s exactly the kind of guy worth caring about.
