| Tucker is undersized at this time but he projects very well. Perhaps his best attribute at this time is his speed. Once he recognizes where the ball is and sees daylight to his destination, he shows a great burst. He is also quick and plays very aggressively. Tucker is a good pass rusher and can chase the run game down from the backside. He could certainly develop into a strong side linebacker in college. |
| Biography: |
| As a senior, Tucker had 43 tackles, 7 sacks and 17 quarterback hurries. As a tight end, he caught 23 passes for 435 yards and three touchdowns. He was named to the Washington Post All-Metro team.
