The story
Faletau Satuala's box score for BYU last fall reads like a downhill thumper — 79 tackles, 7.5 tackles for loss and four pass breakups from a linebacker spot — but the frame behind those numbers, 6-foot-3 and 198 pounds, is light for a front-seven piece projecting up. The model's career-value board slots him at pick No. 81 overall for the 2028 class, yet zero public big boards have him rostered anywhere. This is model conviction running solo, with no room to check it against.
