physical, walk-on-turned-regular DL with leadership upside
Will Diaz’s value at Miami (OH) is less about flashy box-score volume and more about steady, hard-earned impact: the 6-3, 260-pound defensive lineman was originally a walk-on, earned a regular role at defensive end, and coaches describe him as a very physical, athletic player with impact-performer potential. In 2010, he posted 12 tackles, 3 sacks, 1 forced fumble and 2 pass deflections, showing disruptive ability when he gets rolling. That profile makes him an appealing fit for teams wanting a tough, coachable front-seven piece with edge, growth, and leadership traits.[7]
