Interior anchor, early NFL-caliber disruptor
In the 2017 season, Zaycoven Henderson was an anchor on Texas A&M’s defensive line, posting 25 tackles, 2.5 sacks, and 5.0 tackles for loss in 12 games; in 2016, he started all 13 games, finished with 40 tackles, 3.0 sacks, and 10.0 TFLs, and led the Aggies in TFLs, which tells you he was more than a space-eater. He was praised as a strong, explosive, film-room type of defender with quick feet and violent hands, but a foot injury in the 2016 bowl game adds a durability note for fit-minded evaluators.
