Linebackers
45 Michael Divinity, Jr 6’1 243 LB LSU (EAST)
Divinity is the next man up in the linebacker factory down in the Bayou. He knows what his role is in the gameplan and sticks to that specific role. Positional versatility is a thing with him so teams will love that aspect. However, he left the team for a stretch this season for personal reasons so he’ll get asked questions about that.
55 Shaquille Quarterman 6’1 238 LB Miami (EAST)
Quarterman had a disappointing 2019 after stocking up on much anticipated hype after his 2018 season. He’s a class throwback type of inside linebacker but has the athleticism to stick on at least two downs. Versatile athlete that was used some as an edge rusher at times while primarily playing as an inside linebacker. Quick to diagnose plays and attack downhill.
51 Casey Toohill 6’3 245 LB Stanford (WEST)
Toohill led the Cardinal in sacks this past season with eight sacks as he was sometimes deployed as an edge rusher. He can play standup outside linebacker as well since that was his primary duty for Stanford. He’s bigger than some of today’s 4-3 outside linebackers so his best position may be EDGE.
40 John Houston, Jr 6’3 220 LB USC (WEST)
Houston needs a great week to get back on draft boards as 2019 was a giant struggle for him with injuries and inconsistencies. He just wasn’t developed properly under defensive coordinator Clancy Pendergast. A bit on the small side even by today’s standards of outside linebacker.
