Tony Benford is a veteran FSU interior lineman with proven disruption flashes
Tony Benford brings old-school trench value to Florida State: in the 2000 season, he played nine games, logged 24 tackles, 2 tackles for loss, 2 quarterback hurries, and even defended a pass, with his best outing coming against Duke. The differentiator is his size-and-power profile and production against inside traffic—he was praised as a hard-working, interior front piece and originally came to FSU after being rated among the better defensive linemen in his region. If you need a physical, experienced DT who can hold the point and squeeze the pocket, he’s the kind of fit that quietly makes defenses sturdier.
