NFL Draft Profile: Gregory Rousseau is a boom or bust EDGE prospect

Miami defensive end Gregory Rousseau is an interesting prospect.

Rousseau only has one full season of college football under his belt. He played in 13 games as a redshirt freshman in 2019, and led the ACC in both sacks and tackles for a loss. He opted out of 2020 and registered for the draft in his first year of eligibility.

NFL scouts have the difficult task of deciding whether Rousseau was a one-hit wonder, or if he will become the next great NFL pass rusher.

Gregory Rousseau

School: Miami

Position: Defensive end

Height: 6’7”

Weight: 266 pounds

Projected Round: Second

Rousseau might remind Cincinnati Bengals fans of Margus Hunt.
