Texas’s high-motor wrecking ball in the middle
Roach was a disruptive, versatile Texas DL who played with real juice — in his 2019 season at Texas, he posted 40 tackles, 9 tackles for loss, and 3 sacks, showing he could win with burst, leverage, and relentless effort. He’s the kind of defender coaches love: physical, assignment-savvy, and tough enough to rotate inside or edge-adjacent. The big differentiator is his motor and versatility; the concern is that he was more sturdy than flashy, so his value comes from consistency, not highlight-reel chaos.
