Powerful FSU edge with real burst, toughness, and NFL-caliber upside
In the 2017 season at Florida State, Josh Sweat posted 56 tackles, 12.5 tackles for loss, and 5.5 sacks, capping a college run that totaled 14.5 sacks despite major pre-college knee injury concerns and an in-season meniscus tear in 2016[1][10][11]. He stood out as a long, disruptive defensive end who could win with length, motor, and consistency rather than just flash—an edge player coaches trust because he keeps coming, even after adversity[10][11][13]. If you want a physical, experienced, high-floor pass rusher with proven resilience, he fits the mold nicely[10][11].
