Texas A&M football defenders are already drawing attention right before the 2025 NFL Draft. With Shemar Stewart showing freakishly athletic abilities to NFL scouts, along with calling out NFL executives as a mistake not to take him, the Aggies have been in the news prior to the draft.
This is showing that the Aggie defenders are in the NFL to be individual strong players to help out a team in desperate need of defense. With Nic Scourton not getting as much recognition, it's time that Aggie fans and NFL scouts start to remember his talents. As someone who might not be on the stat sheet that much, he could impact the game in a number of ways.
Scourton can impress an NFL team by being an underrated sack machine
Scourton came into the 2025 NFL Draft as a changed man. He finished out his Aggie career as a 285 pound defensive lineman. Now, he's lost around 20 pounds since then, and he says he feels better than ever. Scourton shows that he's dedicated to losing pounds to improve his NFL life.
The thing that's crazy is that with that increased size back at A&M, Scourton has already proved to be a game-wrecker. This is from the Arkansas game back in 2024.

He's had plenty of experience chasing the quarterback with the size that he once was. As a former Purdue Boilermaker, Scourton has already proven strong numbers, by recording 12 sacks in West Lafayette.

As someone who can definitely be a disrupter in the NFL, Scourton has already proven that he can be an elite sack machine. With injury hampering him down the stretch in the 2024 season, he missed a golden opportunity to prove his worth.
Scourton has already been dedicated to losing weight for an NFL team, just that alone shows that he's not just a one-and-done guy. He'll be in the NFL for the long run.
