Expert Analysis
Matt Tate | Prep Redzone Scout
Giampietro measures in at 6’2 225-pounds. The defensive end had 25 total tackles (11 solo, 14 assisted), 10 TFL, 6 sacks, 12 QB pressures, and 1 PD. Giampietro has good athletic ability due to very good lateral quickness, acceleration, good change of direction, and speed. He has very good initial quickness out of his stance. Very good hand strength and hand placement to rip through the OL easily. Giampietro has good block shedding and good off speed. Very good tackling. Giampietro has relentless pursuit, and won’t stop till the ballcarrier is his grasp. He’s another exciting prospect that I believe can impact the D2-FCS level.

Giampietro is an end that has a knack for playing in the backfield and creating pressure on the QB. He is able to disrupt the offenses rhythm and bring the QB down for a sack having 10 total on the year. He is quick and can avoid blocks to make plays or use that speed to set the edge and make the ball carrier bounce the ball back into where his help is. I think he has a chance to take a big leap this year and should be a player hitting the camp circuit hard being a stock watch player to know with his skill set. He will turn a lot of heads this upcoming season and will be a player on a lot of scouts radar.
