former Tennessee DL with proven NFL-style edge and disruptive experience
Danny O'Brien is a battle-tested defensive lineman whose Tennessee résumé shows steady production, including 14 tackles, 2 sacks, and 3.0 tackles for loss in 2016 after contributing earlier in the program; he also flashed a disruptive streak with 7.5 career TFLs and 2 career sacks by 2014. His value is less about gaudy numbers and more about reliability, leverage, and snap-to-snap toughness—traits that usually matter to a depth chart more than highlight reels. If you need a rotational DL who can hold his ground and make occasional plays in the backfield, he fits the profile.[7][8]
