long, athletic edge setter with NFL-caliber versatility
In his Mississippi State career, Gerri Green stood out as a 6-4, 250-pound edge defender who brought length, physicality, and rare versatility, finishing with 161 tackles, 20.5 tackles for loss, 8.5 sacks, 3 interceptions, and 6 forced turnovers overall. His 2018 season showed both upside and steadiness, with 31 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss, and 3.5 sacks, while teammates voted him a defensive captain. What makes him interesting is the combo of athletic edge rush, leadership, and ball skills for his size — a fit for teams that value effort, adaptability, and a disruptive, high-motor front-seven presence.
