PLAYERS
Biography: Two-year starter awarded all-Conference an All-American honors in 2009. Missed the 2010 season after being suspended due to
rules violations. Sophomore totals included 52/19/11. Totaled 34/6.5/2 as a freshman. Underwent emergency brain surgery in
2007 to relieve the pressure of a tumor.
Positives: "Highly talented prospect who impacts the game in a variety of ways. Tremendous athlete who easily moves about the field and makes plays in every direction. Can turn on a dime, loses no momentum at all, and is fast in every direction. Displays speed off the edge, excels in backside pursuit, and plays with great balance and body control. Tough to block, rarely off his feet, and slips off lineman to make plays on the inside. Plays with good pad level, flashes power, and has the ability to stay within his pass rush angle to get to the quarterback. Possesses an array of moves with his hands. Redirects to the action and makes plays against the run." Negatives: Lacks natural bulk and size. At times takes wide angles around blockers or is easily pushed from the action. Allegedly seemed unconcerned about his suspension last season. Analysis: "Quinn is a difference-making player who can be used in a variety of positions. He possesses the deceptive strength to line up as a defensive end, and he can stand up over tackle in a 3-4 alignment. He offers a tremendous amount of upside and has Pro Bowl ability if he checks out medically and keeps his focus on the field. Quinn comes with a great amount of upside yet also a bit of a risk."
