Finn is a defensive lineman who stands out for how advanced his hand usage is, especially when working through offensive linemen in both the run and pass game. On film, he consistently wins reps not just with strength or speed, but with timing and technique—his hands are always the first thing that shows up when he engages a blocker.

He uses quick, controlled strikes to shock linemen at contact, then follows with active swipes and rip moves to clear himself from blocks. Instead of staying stuck in contact, he creates separation early in the rep, which allows him to get into the backfield or reset the line of scrimmage. You can see him consistently winning the leverage battle because his hands stay disciplined and purposeful rather than wild or reactive.

Against the pass, Finn’s hand placement helps him stay effective even when he doesn’t win clean off the snap. He works through protection with second-effort moves, keeps fighting through contact, and uses his hands to redirect blockers and close down space. That consistency leads to pressure, disrupted timing, and plays collapsing from the inside out. Finn holds offers by Arizona, SMU,Arkansas, Baylor , Colorado.
