6’4”, 272 lbs.
Pros:
Cons:
Overall:
Garrett has the size, athleticism and ability to be an impact EDGE player in the NFL, which next to a quarterback is the most important position on the field. His quickness off the edge allows him to live in opponents backfields and he’s constantly disrupting plays. Players with his skill set tend to be highly successful and major cogs in their defenses, and there is little reason to believe that Garrett won’t follow suit.
While some try to nitpick Garrett, there just aren’t negatives there that should be of any real concern to NFL teams. He is just too dominant of a player and minor concerns about him being slightly better in this area or that, shouldn’t even be blips on the radar. If he stays healthy, there is little reason to believe that Garrett won’t be an elite edge player for a long time.
