Carson Cooney

Thumping linebacker who has elite film as a between-the-tackles defender. Measured in at around 6-foot-3.5, 210 pounds, while running in the 4.7-second range at college camps before his senior season. Highly instinctive run defender. Is well-prepared, quickly diagnosing and triggering. A wrecking ball when flowing downhill. Explodes into ball carriers. Plays with elite effort, showing sideline-to-sideline ability in pursuit. Led an extremely stingy defense as a senior, racking up 57 tackles, 7 tackles for loss, and 1 interception. High floor prospect whose ceiling will be determined by his ability to hold up in coverage at the next level.
