Virginia’s 6-foot-6 edge Devon Baxter brings upside, length, and fresh production
Devon Baxter looks like a classic “bet on traits” edge: in the 2026 season, he made his Virginia debut in the Cavaliers’ 34-8 win over NC State and has already flashed with early snaps while carrying a 6-foot-6, 244-pound frame and a four-star pedigree from his high-school days. He arrived at Virginia after two seasons at Michigan without game action, so the appeal is upside, not a long stat sheet. If your team wants length, developmental pass-rush potential, and a player who should still be ascending, Baxter is worth watching.
