Tim Case brings interior toughness to Lafayette’s defensive front
Tim Case profiles as a **physical, trench-first defensive tackle** whose value comes from disruption in the middle, leverage, and effort on contact rather than flashy box-score numbers. For Lafayette, that kind of interior presence matters because DT play is about collapsing pockets, occupying blockers, and freeing teammates to finish plays. The key question for a fit is whether a team wants a reliable **run-stopper/line-anchoring** type who can win with toughness and consistency; I couldn’t verify reliable current-year stat or ranking data in the available results, so this evaluation is based on role fit and positional demands rather than production metrics.
