Montori Hughes brings NFL-size interior power to UT Martin’s defensive line
Montori Hughes is a high-upside, space-eating defensive tackle whose best calling card is power at the point of attack; at UT Martin, he flashed disruptive production with 31 tackles, 8.5 tackles for loss, four sacks, and 13 quarterback hurries as a senior, then parlayed that into a 2013 fifth-round NFL draft selection.[5][2] He fits as an interior anchor if you want a proven, high-motor lineman who can collapse pockets and create negative plays, though the key question for any team is whether his production translates to consistent weekly dominance at the next level.[5][3]
