Tremaine Edmunds: Linebacker, Virginia Tech

Tremaine Edmunds is another linebacker that could be the face of the Colts’ front seven.

He is a great athlete with good size. Edmunds is good against the run and really strong in coverage.

When I watched his tape against Miami, I saw him bite on a fake which allowed Miami to score a long touchdown. Although he needs to play with more discipline, Edmunds is extremely physically gifted and he seems to offer even more upside than Roquan Smith.

He could be a nice pick for the Colts in the 8-12 range should they trade down to one of those picks.
