Four-year starter and team leader with a physical demeanor and impressive level of production. Quarterman is durable and dependable in the middle of the defense, but he lacks NFL range and has below-average short-area agility and quickness as open-field tackler. He's a linear, downhill thumper, but struggles to stay ahead of climbing blocks when runs flow wide. His size and toughness give him a shot as a backup inside linebacker.
Four-year starter with annual stat sheets that looked remarkably similar in all four years. Ironically, some scouts argue that Pinckney hasn't shown enough growth and improvement beyond his standout freshman season. He's physical and plays with decent instincts, but he's an average athlete and doesn't play with enough control or balance from snap to snap. He's been solid at Miami, but his ceiling might be as a backup linebacker and special-teams contributor as a pro.
