Veteran USC Edge With Real Sack Pop and Playmaking Juice

In the 2012 season, Wes Horton was a proven, high-upside USC defensive end who started to come into his own with 43 tackles and 5.5 sacks after working back from an early-season injury; USC also credited him with 74 career tackles, 11.5 tackles for loss, 8 sacks and 22 starts. He stood out for his length, hand use and burst, with coaches praising how fast and disruptive he looked, plus his knack for creating explosive plays. If you want an edge defender who brings toughness, experience and pass-rush upside, Horton is the kind of player worth caring about.
