Ourlads' Profile:

2019 Guide: What Ourlads' NFL Scouting Services said about ZACH ALLEN: Boston College, 6041 281 4.76. Two year starter from New Canaan, CT. Has been one of the most productive defensive ends in the ACC over that span. The two-time All ACC honoree totaled over 40 tackles for loss and 18 sacks over his career from multiple spots along the defensive line. He is not a traditional burner who explodes up the edge, but his skill set is advanced even by NFL-measures. The technique is top notch and combined with his power, size, and strength he will be a versatile force in the league. This inside-out defender is a sure bet to be an effective starter with the potential to be a star. Farm-boy body with thick everything. Powerful player who will continue to add mass to his frame. Dominates match-ups with his hands. Accurate, strong, and ultra-aware. Thinks fast and it translates to his decisions and approach. Has a variety of rush moves that are on call at any given moment, not just any given play. Plays low and strong, will make himself hard to lock onto. Knows how to break off a block via violence and/or quickness. Strong finisher who makes ball carriers think twice about running near him. He gets in on the action often via constant hustle, grit, and instincts. Delayed out of his stance, won’t win the pure edge rushing battle. Can be a slow mover through traffic. Has a hard time with unplanned stop and go movement. 2018 stats: 61 T, 15 TFL, 6.5 sacks, 7 PBU, 11 QBH, 1 FF, 2 BK. Edge speed:left 2.05, right 2.09. OSR:23/31. Second/third round. (A-34 3/4, H-10 1/8, BP-24, 10-1.75).
