Eddrick Houston

A high-effort, point-of-attack defender with a moldable frame and gap-closing speed. Size hasn’t been verified, but is believed to be hovering right around 6-foot-3, 245 pounds. More importantly is rumored to have a near 7-foot wingspan. Racked up 10 sacks and 15 quarterback hurries as a junior while working primarily out of a four-point stance in a three-man front. Could likely be deployed in a similar role at the next level, but might also be able to stand-up and work as a rush linebacker of sorts on Saturdays, or even beef up and attack from the inside as a 3-technique. Initial get-off can cause plenty of issues for blockers, but has also shown that he can win leverage and active hands while facing high-end competition in the Peach State. Must keep evolving and avoid setbacks (injured labrum winter of 11th grade year), but should be viewed as a potential difference-maker on Saturdays given motor, length and burst (at one point anchored school's 4x400 squad). Sunday potential as best football appears to still very much be ahead of him.
