sturdy, high-IQ edge defender from Wisconsin’s elite defense
Conor Sheehy was a dependable Wisconsin defensive end whose value came from consistency, toughness, and playing within one of college football’s best defenses; over his Badger career he appeared in 54 games with 33 starts, recording 95 tackles, 13.5 tackles for loss, and 6.0 sacks. His profile fits a coach who wants a disciplined, technically sound edge defender rather than a pure flash athlete, and recruiting services noted solid point-of-attack strength and hand usage. He also came from a winning culture—Wisconsin went 45-10 during his four years—suggesting a player with proven buy-in and competitive habits.
