Daunte Messina Daunte Messina 6'3" | 290 lbs | DL O'Connor | 2025 State AZ is stifling against the run for O’Connor’s defense. With both rip and swim moves that have proven to be difficult for the offense to handle, he can get into the backfield before the handoff has even been made. Once he finds the ball carrier he uses his long reach to pull them in and at 6’3″ 290 lbs, he has the strength to make sure they hardly ever get away. When he doesn’t use one of his many pass-rush moves, he’s strong enough to drive back linemen while he keeps his eyes on the ball. Able to shed his blocker in an instant and attack whoever has it. Getting the quarterback on the ground just one time in his junior season, I expect that number to take a massive jump in 2024.
