Robert Quinn, who as a sophomore recorded 52 tackles and 11 sacks and impressed both at the NFL scouting combine and at UNC’s pro day, still is believed to be talented enough to pick up where he left off and be an impact player in the NFL whether he’s used as a defensive end or outside linebacker.“People always tell me I’m ready to be the next Julius Peppers or DeMarcus Ware,” Quinn says.
