rugged, inspirational Bucknell linebacker with a proven captain’s edge
Beau Traber emerged at Bucknell as a tough, dependable linebacker whose value went beyond raw production: in the 2012 season, he started all 11 games despite multiple injuries, finished with 67 tackles, 4.5 tackles for loss, 1.5 sacks, and four pass breakups, and earned second-team All-Patriot League honors plus the team’s most inspirational-player award. He was also a senior captain, which fits the profile of a leader who plays through adversity and sets the tone physically and emotionally. If you want a linebacker with edge, durability, and locker-room credibility, he’s the kind of player coaches love.
