a classic Furman linebacker built on tackling, instincts, and disruption
Cedrick Ritter’s profile points to a productive, instinctive linebacker with real downhill pop: as a freshman in the 2001 season, he logged 49 tackles, 4 tackles for loss, 2 sacks, 2 interceptions, and a blocked punt, and he later earned second-team All-Southern Conference recognition in 2003. He was a high-volume prep tackler, showing the kind of motor and physicality coaches love in the middle of a defense. If you want a throwback, assignment-solid defender who can also create splash plays, Ritter fits the bill.
