Edge Rusher: Yetur Gross-Matos, Jr., Penn St.

Get to know the name Yetur Gross-Matos, because apparently not a lot of people do. He put up 54 total tackles, 20.0 tackles for loss, and 8.0 sacks as a sophomore in 2018 yet was only recognized as a third-team All-Big 10 payer.

He has prototypical size (6-5, 259 pounds) and uses it well. He wins with his length, strength and football IQ. He also shows very good closing burst to the quarterback for sacks.

If there are a couple of areas Gross-Matos could stand to improve and develop, it would be his hand usage and keeping his pad level down when bending the edge. If he can improve in those areas and build off his excellent sophomore season, Gross-Matos will be in the discussion as a top-10 pick in 2020.
