Quincy Roche Draft Profile<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Quincy Roche had one of the most productive college careers of any edge rusher entering the 2021 Draft. Roche spent his first three seasons with Temple before transferring to Miami for his senior season. He racked up 30.5 career sacks in four seasons across the two schools. However, most scouts have projected his Miami edge rusher teammates Greg Rosseau and Jaelan Phillips<\/a> ahead of Roche prior to the draft.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Roche attended New Town High School, Maryland, where he played defensive end and tight end. Several colleges recruited Roche out of high school and he committed to play football at Temple University.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He dominated the American Athletic Conference. In three seasons with the Temple Owls, Roche had 26 total sacks. As a junior, he earned a career-high 13 sacks and AAC Defensive Player of the Year. Roche announced his transfer to the University of Miami in January 2020. Roche made 4.5 sacks and an impressive 14.5 tackles for loss in his one season with the Hurricanes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
