Setting the edge for the Farmer’s defense is Kervin Desire Kervin Desire 6'4" | 250 lbs | DL Union | 2025 State NJ . Desire was credited with 25 tackles (11 solo) with 1 sack last fall. If there was one word I would use to describe Desire it would be “wrecking-ball” – and yes, I just hyphenated two words to make it one. Desire relies on his physicality to create violent collisions to win his matchups and take gaps. It would be wise not to send a running back his way in pass protection, as you might just offend him and take out his insult on your back. When a quarterback steps up in the pocket Desire does an outstanding job of retracing back upfield to close the B gap and keep contain. Doubling as an offensive tackle Desire does good work in the screen game. His timing, spacial awareness, mobility, and ability to find a body all allow him to excel in this offensive gamut of plays. Right now I would say he gets better vertical displacement than horizontal displacement on his double teams; all the while being able to move laterally well enough to track and cut off linebackers at the second level. In pass protection he has solid footwork. An immediate thing I would coach Desire to work on is training and separating from offensive linemen. Given his size – and his assumed wingspan – Desire will be a nightmare for offensive linemen should he create separation from them while on defense.
