EDGEs | 3-4 OLBs

I classify EDGEs as guys that play off the LOS, can be called upon to drop into space and take on a LB duty. Schematically, they are typically along the outside of  3-4 front. That said, some do have the ability to play a traditional "hand in the dirt" role.

Round 1 - Will Anderson, Will McDonald, Nolan Smith
