Trey Hendrickson arm length: 32" Derek Barnett arm length: 32 1/8" If Trey develops proper technique, he will create space and openings to beat his man on a consistent basis. Coach em up (see new D line coach Ryan Nielsen). |

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
So basically the DE spot opposite of Cam will always be open and available for rotational starters

Trey Hendrickson Florida Atlantic Conference USA Photo of Trey Hendrickson Combine Results Grade 5.58 ? 4.65 SEC 33.5 INCH 122.0 INCH 7.03 SEC 4.20 SEC Top Performer 11.43 SEC Top Performer Blue Star = Combine Top Performer More Draft Video 6'4" Height 32" Arm Length 266LBS. Weight 9 7/8" Hands Overview The Owls had one of the best defenders in Conference USA the past four seasons in Hendrickson. He garnered first-team all-conference accolades in 2015 after finishing tied for second in the FBS with 13.5 sacks (among his 15 tackles for loss) and five forced fumbles. League coaches named him first-team All-C-USA again in 2016 (51 tackles, 15 for loss, 9.5 sacks) even though offenses paid close attention to his whereabouts. He tied for the FBS lead in blocked kicks last year with four. Hendrickson led the team in sacks as a sophomore, as well, tripping up quarterbacks five times (32 total tackles, 10 for loss). The third-team all-state pick from Apopka, Florida played some significant minutes as a freshman, making nine stops, 2.5 for loss and 1.5 sacks. Analysis Strengths Good upper-body turn that presents a difficult target for tackles to punch. Rushes with good lean and has a strong club hand to soften the edge. Uses arm extension and acceleration to generate some speed-to-power push. Impressive, fluid footwork with spin move counter. Hands are effective at warding off cut blocks. Good lateral quickness to squeeze running lane. Rakes at the ball as tackler, forcing six fumbles over final two seasons at FAU. Special teams demon; blocked a punt, two field goals and an extra point in 2016. Weaknesses Average height with lean legs and short arms for the edge. Not an "other side of the line" run defender. A tick slow to diagnose and respond off snap. Allows blockers to cross his face and beat him to the block. Got hooked and secured by smallish tight end Jonnu Smith from Florida International. Needs to do better job of thumping and setting a strong edge. Plays too tall in his tackle-end twist transitions, allowing blockers under his pads. Draft Projection Round 3-4 Bottom Line More of a second-effort sack man than a quick-win specialist, but he did show some edge rushing ability at the Shrine Game practices that didn't flash as often on tape. His lack of length on the edge will be a turnoff for some, but he flashes enough to warrant a third-day draft selection as a backup 4-3 defensive end who could continue to develop as a rusher with additional work. |

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
Well round three is in the books. The Saints picked up a set of crutches, paid too much for a 3rd down RB and got a bunch of drunk fans to piss and moan at each other while staring at titty pics. Yay!!!
