Arizona DE with NFL pedigree and a high-motor edge
Ricky Elmore is best known as a strong-side defensive end with polished college-to-pro pedigree, having played at Arizona and later reached the NFL, which makes him a meaningful benchmark for the Wildcats’ defensive-line room. At Arizona, his profile suggests the classic edge set: size, leverage, and discipline at the point of attack rather than flashy sack totals. The differentiator is his background and football lineage, plus a reputation for being steady and assignment-sound—traits coaches love for a fit in physical, gap-control defenses.
