Tony Mashburn brought disruptive edge off the line for N.C. A&T
Tony Mashburn’s profile reads like a classic impact defensive end: in his N.C. A&T career he recorded 73 tackles, 7 sacks, and 20.5 tackles for loss, and in 2011 he logged 36 tackles and 12.5 TFL, showing real backfield disruption ability.[4] He also produced in bigger-game moments, including a seven-tackle outing noted in a defensive standout performance against South Carolina State.[2] If you want a DE who can attack the pocket, finish plays behind the line, and bring steady production rather than flash-only traits, Mashburn fit that mold.[4][2]
