2027 Defensive Lineman Andy Fierros Andy Fierros 6'2" | 285 lbs | DL Canyon View | 2027 State AZ was the premier interior defensive lineman at the combine. Clocking in a 5.25 40-yard dash time, a 8.1 foot broad jump, and a 5.12 shuttle shows that Fierros is highly athletic for his 6’2 275 lb frame. Fierros has insane explosiveness, displaying excellent short-area quickness and burst to get out of his stance, especially on the 40-yard dash. He moves fluidly and is incredibly powerful at the point of attack, overpowering any interior lineman. It will be exciting to watch Fierros wreak havoc at the line of scrimmage this season with a incredibly talented Canyon View defensive line.

Fierros is one of those guys who looks built for the trenches. He’s got the kind of frame that gives him a natural advantage — long arms, solid base, and the ability to hold his ground even when offensive linemen come flying off the ball. In the run game, it’s like he plants his cleats in the dirt and says, “you’re not moving me.” No matter how hard the blocker comes at him, he fires out with even more intent and holds his spot. What really stands out is how he uses that length to his advantage. He’s not just holding ground — he’s actively disengaging and finding the ball. His hand placement and timing help him shed blocks quickly, and when he locks onto a runner, the play’s usually over. He’s got better foot speed than you’d expect for someone with his build, and it helps him redirect and finish plays up the middle. You can see the pass-rush potential in flashes, too. While he’s already a force against the run, his quickness and motor give him the tools to become even more of a dominant force as he keeps developing. With his size, strength, and football IQ, he’s someone you want anchoring a front seven — and he’s only going to get better with more reps and physical maturity.
