Here’s what PFF wrote about Hurst, who the site believes is a day 1 NFL draft pick next year.
- When on the field, few players have been as productive as Hurst. He has been dominant as a pass-rusher and against the run. His 15.3 pass rush productivity in 2016 ranked first among all 2016 draft-eligible interior defensive lineman while his 11.6 run stop percentage ranks sixth is this draft class.
- Over the last two seasons, Hurst has only played a total of 758 snaps and hasn’t yet produced at the high level he’s shown capable of over a full season. With the departures of drafted 2016 prospects, Hurst should have an opportunity see more snaps.
