a classic nose tackle with proven early-career production at ULM
John Nard was a disruptive interior defender for Louisiana-Monroe, with ULM listing him as a nose tackle and noting he appeared in eight games in 2011, finishing with five tackles and one sack. He was also a three-time all-district performer at Evangel Christian and, in ULM’s recruiting release, was credited with 60 tackles and four sacks as a senior, which hints at real leverage and interior punch. Off the field, sources describe him as humble and easy to get along with—nice glue-guy traits for a locker room. Good fit if a team wants a tough, in-the-trenches NT who can anchor and occasionally flash disruption.
