Cooper Petagna National Recruiting Analyst

Position versatile pass rusher capable of playing multiple roles in an odd front that shows the ability to win consistently with first step explosiveness and initial quickness off the line of scrimmage. Verified at 6-foot-4 and 225-pounds this February, Grady possesses a long lower half in addition to excellent arm length at 34-inches plus that allows him to utilize his length and athleticism effectively off the edge and on the interior. A quick twitch mover, the Alabama native relies heavily on his first step and foot and body quickness to gain leverage on opposing offensive linemen while flashing the speed to power ability to illustrate his physical pass rushing potential at the next level. Although very productive at the high school level, Grady will more than likely need a year to develop physically in a collegiate weight room before seeing a considerable amount of snaps on Saturdays. A high floor prospect that does a lot of things well, Grady projects as a Power Four multi-year starter in a 34 OLB role with the ability to develop into a Day-2 or Day-3 NFL Draft choice.
