veteran Notre Dame edge setter with NFL-caliber toughness
In the 2012 season, Kapron Lewis-Moore was a steady, high-impact Notre Dame defensive end: he started all 13 games, posted 40 tackles, 8.5 tackles for loss, 6 sacks, 9 quarterback hurries, 2 forced fumbles, and 2 passes defended. Notre Dame credited him with 42 career starts and 150 tackles, and his game was built on length, power, and reliability against both the run and pass. The big flag is durability: he previously missed time with a knee injury and then suffered a torn ACL in the 2013 BCS title game, which derailed his college finale and draft momentum.
