BIOGRAPHY: Junior-college transfer who broke into the starting lineup last season and produced career-high numbers of 51/9.5/5. Totaled 18 tackles as a junior.
POSITIVES: Improving linebacker with limited size. Diagnoses the action, displays a good head for the ball, and quickly changes direction. Pursues hard and gives effort. Helps out on special teams.
NEGATIVES: Possesses marginal pursuit speed and easily blocked from the action. Saw limited action as a starter at Ohio State.
ANALYSIS: Taking his game to another level, Grant made progress last season. He offers potential as a backup linebacker for a one-gap system.
