Name: Tim NorthHeight: 6'1"
Weight: 246 lbs.
High School: Linden High School in Linden, MI
Position: Defensive end
Class: 5th year senior
Jersey Number: #89
Prediction for 2009: Special teams contributor
North might seem like an unusual choice to be included higher than several scholarship players, but he's contributed on special teams and even on defense in 2007, despite being a former walk-on. He's been good enough to earn one-year scholarships the past couple years and will probably be on scholarship again this season. He's consistently a presence on special teams units and even though he probably lacks a position in Greg Robinson's defense (too small for DE, too slow for OLB), you'll likely see him make a couple tackles in kick and punt coverage this season.
