We're moving closer to the start of 2016 Virginia Football, and today marks 94 days remaining. Today, we're looking at #94, Naji Abdullah. A redshirt freshman DE/OLB from Jacksonville, FL.
Position: DE/OLB
Height: 6'5"
Weight: 215
Year: Redshirt Freshman
Hometown: Jacksonville, FL

As we discussed in Monday's profile, undersized DEs can play for Bronco Mendenhall if they have the requisite energy and motor. However, there is a limit to that. At 6'5" and just 215 pounds, Abdullah would likely be manhandled by opposing OLs.
Abdullah was rated a 3 star prospect by ESPN and 247 sports, but 2 star prospect by both Rivals and Scout.
