Gabriel Brownlow-Dindy

A twitched-up interior pass rusher that can make things extremely difficult for opposing quarterbacks. Burst onto the national recruiting scene summer before his junior season when he posted elite testing numbers (34.5-inch vertical jump and 4.4 in the short shuttle at 6-foot-2, 278 pounds). Fires out of his stance with a lethal first step. Constantly in control of his body and doesn’t lose his balance or bearing easily. Understands how to bend and find leverage while crashing gaps. Keeps feet pumping and plays with a steady level of energy. Mauling tackler with the grip strength to corral ball carriers and make stops outside the hashes. Wins more times than not with a simple bullrush, but knows how to swim his way past blockers and is equipped with a few pass-rushing moves. Lightning-quick hands, which were developed during Mixed Martial Arts training as a youngster, might be his best attribute. Produced his first two years at the varsity level totaling 18.5 sacks and 47.5 tackles for loss. Senior season was derailed a bit by injury as he tore a ligament in his hand, but he is expected to make a full recovery and should be ready to go by the time he steps foot on a college campus. Likely going to need to some time to adjust to the demands of Power 5 football, but has what it takes to eventually be a difference maker up front for a College Football Playoff contender. Ability to shoot into the backfield and flush out pockets on a consistent basis will presumably have him on the radar of NFL scouts.
