Toliver is one of the leading sack leaders in all of Colorado. The 6’1 210-pound defensive end has 78 total tackles (33 solo, 45 assisted), 19.5 TFL, 14.5 sacks, 2 FF, and 2 FR. Goes between edge and off-ball linebacker. Toliver has good athletic ability due to very good lateral quickness, good speed, and acceleration. He has very good strength. Split double blocks and get pressure on the QB.  Good initial quickness. Very good hand strength. Very good swim moves, and power rush. Good get off speed, and very good block shedding. Very good bend around the edge. He’s aggressive and kills it on the blitzes. Relentless pursuit and doesn’t give up till the ball carrier is in his hands. Great season by the edge rusher.

Toliver has had his eyes on the opposing quarterback all season long. The 6’1 210 pound defensive end has 17 total tackles (9 solo, 8 assisted), 6 TFL, 5 sacks, 1 FF, and 1 FR through 2 games. He has good athletic ability due to good acceleration, speed, and lateral quickness. He is a productive player on special teams too. Toliver has good initial quickness out of his stance, going into a low pad level to out leverage the OL. Uses leverage a lot to win at the line of scrimmage. Toliver has good strength and good hand strength. Pushes the tackle or guard back into the pocket. Toliver has a good bull rush too. He’s a physical tackler and will chase guys out in open space to get the tackle. I’m excited to see how Toliver continues to harass offenses the rest of the season.

Small school standout Toliver is proving he belongs in the conversation with some of the state’s top defenders. With 17 total tackles, 6 tackles for loss and 5 sacks, he has quickly made a name for himself early in the season. His strength and quickness give him the ability to collapse the line of scrimmage and disrupt plays before they develop. Though he is playing at the 1A level, Toliver’s production is catching attention and could open the door for D2 or D3 opportunities down the road. He is a prospect on the rise who is becoming a key defensive difference maker for this team.
