Tyre West

A bully up front. Over 6-foot-2 and north of 280 pounds. Blessed with some additional length in the arms. Started prep career off working as a five-technique, but will be an interior defensive lineman at the next level. Has some juice to him and is able to use a quick first-step to shoot through gaps and put pressure on quarterbacks. Likes contact and will violently strike ball carriers. Understands how to find leverage and get up and underneath blockers. Is somewhat experienced in hand-to-hand combat and has shown that he can win with a simple arm bar. Motor tends to run hot, which in turn allows him to make plenty of plays in backside pursuit. Owns a 4.5 shuttle time, which is respectable for someone his size. Has produced for four straight years at the varsity level in one of Georgia’s highest classifications. Will need to adjust to the play speed and demands of Power 5 football, but has the build and get off to emerge as a multi-year contributor and potential impact player on Saturdays. Could find a home at a few different spots along the line, but ceiling might ultimately be highest as a three-technique in a four-man front. NFL upside.
