is a true defensive chess piece for this Cooper Canyon defense. In 8 games last season, he managed to have 48 total tackles, 22 of those as solo tackles, 10 sacks, 8 TFLs, and 5 recorded hurries. The first thing that jumps off his tape is his motor. He is a high-flying player, constantly running to the ball no matter where it is on the field, giving it his absolute all on every play. He displays versatility to play both on the edge or on the interior defensive line. He can win with speed or power and constantly disrupt timing within the pocket, wreaking havoc in the backfield. Castro should be a top priority for offenses to account for next season.
