Expert Analysis
Hunter Tierney | Prep Redzone Scout
Haynie plays with that college edge already — the get-off is real, he’s got an actual pass-rush plan instead of just running in a straight line, and the impact is obvious because he’s not just landing sacks, he’s constantly affecting throws and stuffing the run (18 hurries and 16.5 TFLs). He’s one of those guys tackles hate because he keeps coming with different looks — speed, hands, counters — and boy, when he hits you, it shows up in how runners and quarterbacks react the next time. The next step is living in the weight room. If he’s able to fill out that frame, it changes the entire conversation because suddenly the same technique is attached to an edge who can hold up against bigger, more powerful left tackles. Right now, the feel for the position is the selling point — he understands how to rush and looks very natural doing it — and a summer in a college weight room could be the difference between “sometimes-disruptive package edge” and “guy who’s going to mess with your protection plan on Saturdays.”
