Tank Carradine was a disruptive edge force at FSU before the injury bug bit
In the 2012 season, Tank Carradine was one of Florida State’s most productive defenders, leading the team with 80 tackles and ranking second in the ACC with 11 sacks before a torn ACL ended his season[5]. His calling card was power off the edge: he was described as a “physical specimen,” a hard-charging defensive end with the size, length, and relentlessness to collapse pockets and finish plays[15][10]. The big question on him was durability, not talent—when healthy, he looked like a fit for teams wanting a violent, high-motor DE who can wreck a game.
