Thanks For The Memories!

Good luck to Donald Butler and Daniel Te'o-Nesheim

Daniel Te'o-Nesheim Drafted 86th Overall By The Eagles

The Philadelphia Eagles picked up the UW career sacks leader Daniel Te'o-Nesheim in the 3rd round. Though many draft pundits have repeatedly knocked his overall athleticism, the eagles saw what us Husky fans have been seeing for years. NFL tackles, hope you're ready for our blue-collar DE.

Congrats Daniel, you've made Husky Nation a proud one!

Daniel Te'o-Nesheim

Today is the day for Defensive lineman at the NFL Combine. He hasn't been shown a lot of love from his pre-draft analysis, this is what they had to say:

"Te'o-Nesheim has been a productive four-year starter for the Huskies defense. Te'o-Nesheim is an undersized defensive end that wins with toughness, effort, instincts and technique. He lacks great quickness, burst and agility as a pass rusher but does a nice job using his hands to counter effectively. Te'o-Nesheim will have a tough time anchoring effectively versus the run and doesn't possess the speed, quickness and agility to project to an outside backer in a 3-4 defensive scheme. His high motor, leadership skills, toughness and instincts gives him a chance but he clearly overachieved in college and is not likely to transition well at the next level."

Here is his line from the combine homepage:
