My favorite aspects of Roche’s game is his overall IQ and evident film study. His ability to make himself skinny combined with ankle flexion and rhythm make him a consistent threat to win around the arc and corner. His swats, clubs, swipes and rips combined with lateral rhythm and body contortion have put countless clean wins inside and outside on tape if tackles lunge at him.Īt Temple, Roche bull rushed and attempted to convert speed to power more frequently than at Miami. Aggressive tackles often have problems with Roche’s karate like hand fighting. Rushing confidently with his hand in the dirt or standing, Roche excels in both proactive and reactionary rushes. Roche then earned an invitation to the Senior Bowl, where he showcased his advanced pass rushing repertoire and steady run defense throughout the week in Mobile. His 27 pressures ranked 27th in the nation, despite Miami only playing 10 games. Per Sports Info Solutions, Roche racked up 27 pressures including three solo sacks and three half-sacks. Roche certainly had reasons to consider entering the NFL draft, however, he decided to transfer to the Miami Hurricane’s program and continue sharpening his craft against ACC competition. His 13 sacks and 19 tackles for loss earned him AAC Defensive Player of the Year honors. Over his first three seasons in Philly, the Randallstown native racked up 26 sacks and 39.5 tackles for loss.
Starting as a redshirt freshman, Roche racked up seven sacks and 11.5 tackles for loss playing as a weak side defensive end in the Owl’s defense. He committed to Temple, where Roche redshirted in 2016.
Quincy Roche (6-foot-3, 243 pounds at the Senior Bowl) was a three-star prospect and the 36th overall prospect in Maryland’s class of 2016.
