We’ve been high on Darby edge Logan Krooner for a long time. Krooner, who is committed to Ohio University, is a high-motored defensive end who can collapse the pocket and takes great angles to the quarterback. He has a good combination of size and speed. Can take on multiple blockers, pursue and chase, and is very physical. He finished last season with 11.5 sacks, 43 total tackles, five forced fumbles and 32 QB pressures with two blocked punts. Also a tight end.

The fruits of Hilliard Darby High School Class of 2027 defensive end Logan Krooner are starting to pay off. The 6-foot-3, 240-pound defensive end recorded 11.5 sacks, 64 total tackles and three forced fumbles and 32 quarterback pressures last season and college coaches have taken notice. He has earned offers from Central Michigan, Army, Ohio, Fordham, Bowling Green and Colgate over the past month.

Logan had an excellent season for Hilliard Darby this year. He’s explosive off the edge and has great bend. He can win inside with his cut ability and a swipe with his hands.. He can win outside with bend, quickness, and power in his hands. He sets the edge well in the run game and plays bigger than his listed size. He was an excellent part of the Darby defense, creating havoc and a lot of turnovers this season.

Krooner was a presence on the edge for Darby. He has the physicality to set the edge in the run game. In the pass game he has the quickness to get to the edge and bend to get home. I really could see Logan play either edge or linebacker at the college level. He runs well and has the hips and change of direction to play the position. It’s easy to see why he’s getting the D1 attention that he is.

Very disruptive and talented EDGE prospect with good first-step quickness. Can bat down passes at the LOS, uses his arm length well, can drop in coverage and defend the pass. Good frame, size and bulk. Could be a legit Power 4 player. High academic prospect.
