Round 2, Pick 41 - Buffalo Bills - Torrell Troup

Torrell Troup, DT, Central Florida

Ht: 6’ 2 ¾” Wt: 314

EMQB’s analysis on the pick:  Troup is a great selection because of the rarity of nose tackles.  Buffalo may have taken Clausen or Kindle but they understand that quarterbacks and outside linebackers are deep positions in this draft. 

Pro Football Weekly’s scouting report: A strong, wide-bodied clogger capable of manning the nose in a 3-4 alignment, Troup has the mass and anchor strength to stuff the run for an aggressive, slanting odd front such as that of the Packers, Steelers or 49ers.

NFL projection: Third- to fourth-round pick.

Lindy’s Sports scouting report:  It’s hard for teams to find nose tackles with Troup’s size, strength and motor in the middle rounds of the draft, so don’t be surprised if he is selected earlier that many project.
