Scouting Report

Gabe Kirschke #10

Wake Forest · EDGE · R-Sr · 2027 Draft · Lone Tree, CO · Valor Christian

6-5 · 249 lbs

5.2

UDFA

Floor 4.8 · Ceiling 5.4

#1471 overall · #152 EDGE of 15096

Scouting Verdict

A productive rotational/starting edge with an NFL bloodline (son of 11-year pro Travis Kirschke). Sack output has slipped (6.5 at Colorado State 2024 → 5 at Wake 2025) but he's a steady two-year producer opposite Hardy.

Ceiling · 5.4

Projected 2026 starter (DL1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.2) · ACC draft-temper.

Floor · 4.8

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.4.

Pedigree

No composite recruiting rank on file.

Path: Wisconsin → Colorado State → Wake Forest
