Brian Price, DT, UCLA
Ht: 6’ 1 1/8” Wt: 303
EMQB’s analysis on the pick: The Bucs D is based upon DTs getting quickly up the field and disrupting the play. Price joins McCoy in the effort to rebuild Tampa’s defense back into its dominate form of the late ‘90s and early 2000s.
Pro Football Weekly’s scouting report: Compactly built penetrator who was very productive despite not playing at an optimum conditioning level and sitting out a significant number of snaps when winded. Shows big-time flashes when his battery is charged and has potential as a penetrating three-technique with enough power to slide over the nose in a slanting, one-gap scheme. A pit bull who will be best playing in gaps.
NFL projection: Top-50 pick.
Lindy’s Sports scouting report: Price is far from a one-year wonder. The highly-touted prospect registered 14 tackles as a true freshman, but seven were behind the line of scrimmage. As a true sophomore, Price earned first-team All-Pac-10 accolades with 35 tackles, 14 tackles for loss and four sacks. Concerns about his size and short-area quickness might prevent a team from investing a top 20 pick. However, his ability to wreak havoc behind the line of scrimmage will invite suitors before the first round ends.
