big-bodied interior plug with proven Power-5-era pedigree
Marquise Griffin brings NFL-style size to the middle at 6-3, 320, and Austin Peay has long listed him as a seasoned defensive lineman who already logged 24 stops in a season with 1.5 tackles for loss, plus earlier production at East Mississippi CC as part of a national-title run. His value is the dirty-work stuff: absorbing blocks, clogging run lanes, and helping a defense stay sturdy inside. If your team wants a tone-setter more than a stat-sheet star, Griffin is the kind of low-glamour, high-grit fit that quietly makes everyone else’s job easier.
