BACKGROUND: A four-star defensive end recruit out of high school, Lawson wanted to move away from home to play football and was ready to enroll at Tennessee, but after his father was killed in a car accident, he decided to stay close to home. Lawson committed to Clemson prior to his senior year, but he didn’t qualify academically, enrolling at Hargrave Military Academy for the 2012 season – also received recruiting attention for basketball. He joined the Tigers as a freshman in 2013 and played in all 13 games as a back-up, tallying 35 tackles, 10.0 tackles for loss and 4.0 sacks. Stuck behind Vic Beasley and Corey Crawford on the depth chart, Lawson again came off the bench again in 2014 as a sophomore, recording 44 tackles, 11.0 tackles for loss and 3.5 sacks. He became a starter in 2015 as a junior and was runner-up for ACC Defensive Player of the Year with a NCAA-best 25.5 tackles for loss, adding 60 tackles and 12.5 sacks to earn First Team All-ACC and AllAmerica honors. Lawson decided to skip his senior season to enter the 2016 NFL Draft.

STRENGTHS: Proportionate upper and lower body thickness…quick initial step with the lateral agility and knee bend to rush with low pad level…stays coordinated in his rush sequence, using a variety of spin and power arm moves to beat blocks…resets his vision well on the move to find the ballcarrier, coming to balance to make stops in small spaces…active, heavy hands to stack the edge, fight off blockers’ jabs and create push with his upper body…disciplined vs. the run, holding the edge and leveraging blocks with an iron shoulder and body flexibility…heavy striker and drives through his hips, bringing his legs with him – strong hands/wrists to finish tackles…experienced dropping in space and covering running backs out of the backfield…takes well to coaching and praised for his football intelligence…has worked hard on his diet and work habits to stay at peak conditioning…low maintenance individual with the positive attitude and competitive hunger to hone his craft – “one of the easiest guys I’ve ever coached,” according to Tigers head coach Dabo Swinney…consensus All-American 2015 season, leading the nation in tackles for loss (25.5) and finishing his career with 46.5 tackles for loss.

WEAKNESSES: Only average height and length for the position…not a twitchy or naturally explosive athlete to win the corner on burst alone…needs to quicken his recoil and get his hands back to better halt runners in his gap…while balanced and agile to drop and move in reverse, he lacks the range and redirection traits to consistently cover in space…has a few late hit penalties on his resume that he needs to learn from…minor durability concerns with a history of sore shoulders, wearing a heavy brace on his right shoulder most of his junior year…only one season of starting experience…suffered a sprained MCL in his left knee (Dec. 2015) and played through the injury in the National Championship Game.

SUMMARY: A one-year starter, Lawson followed the same path from D.W. Daniel High School to Clemson as DeAndre Hopkins and several other NFL players, but his path included a year at military school (academics) and two years as a reserve before getting his chance to shine as a starter in 2015 – recorded double-digit tackles for loss all three of his seasons for the Tigers. Despite losing eight defensive starters in 2015, Clemson’s defense ranked top-10 nationally and Lawson was a substantial reason for that, leading the nation in tackles for loss (25.5). He is an intelligent and powerful edge defender with the lower body athleticism and flexibility to be equally dominant against the run and the pass. Lawson isn’t a long-armed, twitchy athlete, but his efficient pass rush process and ball awareness allow him to be productive – top-20 prospect and NFL starter as a rookie, best-suited in a 4-3 base scheme.

thats the 3 teams that needed LB's jets could take one

Shaq Lawson
School: Clemson
Position: DE

Positive: Three-year starter awarded All-America and all-Conference honors last season after 60 tackles, 25.5 tackles for loss and 12.5 sacks. Terrific pass rusher with size limitations. Athletic, breaks down well and fluid moving in every direction. Easily collapses down the line of scrimmage defending the run, uses his hands to protect himself and plays with excellent balance. Possesses a quick change of direction, easily alters his angle of attack and can bend off the edge. Plays disciplined, stay-at-home football and gives effort defending the run or rushing the passer. Displays a variety of moves getting off blocks, sacrifices his body to make plays and competes.

Negative: Struggles getting off blocks and engulfed by larger linemen. Lacks bulk and will be turned off the line by opponents.
Analysis: Lawson was very effective making plays behind the line scrimmage and at the same time displays good instincts and head for the game. He's a scheme specific defender who could flourish as a one gap defensive end.
