Derrick LeBlanc Scouting Summary

“Versatile defensive lineman with length and quickness who creates disruption as an interior pass rusher,” On3’s Director of Scouting Charles Power wrote. “Has measured at close to 6-foot-5, 265 pounds with a wing-span over 6-foot-10 and 33.5-inch arms. Popped up on recruiting radars early as a high school underclassman. Plays both defensive end and on the interior at a high school program that traditionally has FBS level talent. Shows active hands and good quickness, particularly as an interior pass rusher. Can present a mismatch for opposing guards and centers on passing downs. Uses his length both as a run defender and finisher behind the line of scrimmage.”

He ranks as the No. 73 player in the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that accounts for all four major recruiting sites. He also tabs in as the No. 8 defensive lineman and the No. 14 player in the state of Florida.
