| A productive pass rusher in college, Hickman lacks the size to be an every-down defensive end at the next level. Can be used as a rush linebacker in a 34 defense, but he must start doing more than just pinning his ears back and rushing up the field. |
| Biography: |
Junior college transfer who started at UCLA the past two years.
All-Conference selection last year and received some All-American
consideration after posting 42/19/12.5. Junior totals were 31/5.5/8.
Pos:
Undersized pass rusher who creates a lot of havoc up the field.
Plays with good balance and pursues with speed from the backside.
Fires through the gaps up the field, works his hands throughout the
action and is deceptively strong. Tough to knock off his feet. Flashes
speed off the edge.
Neg:
Handled at the point by opposing tight ends and easily wired by
blocks. Can be a liability in run defense and lacks a physical nature
to his game. |
