FSU’s disruptive, high-motor interior lineman who brought veteran polish to the middle
Andre Fluellen was a Florida State defensive tackle known for NFL-caliber size, dependable leverage, and a power-first style that made him a steady interior presence; he was an ESPN-listed top senior to watch in 2007 and was drafted in the 3rd round in 2008, which underscores how evaluators valued his pro-ready frame and run-defense profile.[2][6] For a team, he fit as a tough, assignment-sound DT who could hold the point of attack and bring mature, seasoned energy rather than flash or elite bend.[2][6]
