3rd round, 90th overall, OLB Jonathan Greenard, Florida
The former Louisville Cardinals, who transferred for his senior season to play at Florida in the SEC East, brings versatility as an edge defender. Weaver expects to use the 6-3, 263-pound outside linebacker as a pass-rusher and also in coverage.
“Jon Greenard was a guy that you could see doing a bunch of things for us, and I think position flexibility, particularly in the defense we’re trying to institute, adds a tremendous amount of value,” Weaver said on May 13. “He’s a guy that can rush off the edge, can rush inside, can drop into coverage, and when you can wear that many hates, that poses a lot of potential problems for an offense.”
