Kendall Langford DL 6'6 287 Hampton 4.89

Langford worked himself into the rotation quickly at Hampton, and made a big impact right away from his end spot. He had 44 tackles, 11.5 for loss, and six sacks on the year. He earned All MEAC honors a year later, finishing with 65 tackles, 15.5 for loss, and 4.5 sacks. As a junior he had another big year, totaling 55 tackles, 15.5 for loss, and eight sacks on the year. He led the team in tackles as a senior, finishing with 72, 13.5 for loss, and six sacks on the year.

Langford is an excellent 3-4 end prospect. He has great size, and is active on the defensive line. He is athletic for his size, and is more than just a run stopper. He uses his size to hold his ground and clog running lanes, but also has the ability to constantly get pressure on the QB and get into the backfield. He has been a steady performer over his entire career, and may bring the ability to move inside to DT in a 4-3 alignment.

Playing at a lower level of competition raises questions about his ability and how is translates to the next level. He will need to further develop his skills, because he can rely on his physical talent too much right now. Langford�s height may work against him moving inside to tackle in the NFL, if he is selected by a team that utilizes a 4-3 defense.

Langford is one of the best small school prospects in the country. He brings a lot of talent and versatility to the table. He may be able to play multiple spots in a 4-3, along with end in a 3-4 alignment.
