Active, rangy Albany linebacker with proven ball disruption
Gaida’s value is in his downhill tackling and playmaking in coverage: Albany’s roster notes a junior season with a **six-tackle game** and **two pass breakups** against Massachusetts, plus another **six-stop** outing against Richmond, which points to a linebacker who can stay involved in space and make disruptive plays near the ball.[2] ESPN’s player page also lists him as a career linebacker with college experience, giving him credibility as a game-ready depth piece rather than a developmental flyer.[1] If you want a defender who brings effort, physicality, and coverage versatility, Gaida fits that mold.[2][1]
