Kareem, like Okwara, is another guy who could have been a fairly high pick in this year’s NFL Draft. At this point last year, many were speculating as to how Kareem would fair as a full-time player in Notre Dame’s defense.

He didn’t disappoint.

Last season, Kareem had 5.5 sacks and 11.5 tackles for loss and showed versatility as a run-stopper and as a pass-rusher. Kareem will continue to hone those skills and he’ll make an NFL team really happy next season.
