is an unbelievable EDGE prospect out of Charles Henderson that looks like one of the top talents at his position across the whole nation. Grady is a force off the edge- it doesn’t matter what opposing offenses do- he will find a way to either impact or stop them. He has a special blend of size, speed, and strength that allows him to consistently set the edge and make plays against the run and pass. Against the run, Grady never allows the ballcarrier to break off big runs to the outside, he does a great job crashing in and forcing plays to the interior- if the ballcarrier does get near him, its almost always going to be at or before the line of scrimmage. Rushing the passer, Grady already has a really unique set of pass rush moves that allow him to almost immediately beat offensive tackles to generate pressure and sacks. Grady had a huge year last fall where he totaled up 106 tackles (35 for loss), 19 sacks, 26 hurries, and three fumble recoveries. With play like that, it’s no wonder why Grady has picked up offers from Alabama, Texas, and tons of top tier programs. He’s such an complete prospect already and still has room to grow, keep watch of him this fall to see him dominate his senior season!
