had an active season as a sophomore. Little did we know he would be even more efficient as a junior. He tallied 82 tackles, 6 TFL, 1 sack, 2 Ints, 2 PD, 1 FC, 2 FF last fall. These stats across represent an increase from 6.8 tackles/game in 13 games as a sophomore to 9.1 tackles/game in 9 games as a junior.As a LB he does an excellent job reading his keys. He reacts and runs full speed. This enables him to plug gaps before offenders get there. When backside, he does a great job shooting the “window” and either forcing the issue or making a TFL. He also awfully physical in his tackles and when engaging with linemen. He times his blitzes wells and his running starts helps him evade the OL. He wants to be a part of every single play as evidenced by his hustle. With his pass drops, he gets appropriate depth and seems to have a sense for route development has it happens behind him – opening his hips and dropping with the correct shoulder. He has shown to be physical in jamming receivers within 5 yards of the LOS. Lobelo is a really good high school talent. You can tell he is disciplined and well coached. Right now his reads are so accurate and he trusts them, which allows him to make so many plays. An uptick of quickness will take his game to an insane level. If he gains a step he will be an absolute terror as a senior.Hudl
