Texas A&M. Kingsley Keke. 3. player. 49. . Defensive Line

Kingsley Keke was one of the biggest surprises of this past season for the Aggies as he shed quite a bit of weight and moved over to defensive end in the place of an injured Michael Clemons. He excelled at that position in the SEC, pushing his draft stock through the roof. He is one of those guys who stayed for his senior year and honestly couldn’t have made a better choice because a year before, he wouldn’t have even been drafted.

Just like many of the others that I have discussed before now, Kingsley is not ready to be a starter just yet. He still has some issues with consistency and technique, but the Packers like how big and physical this young man is and as a result he will likely sit as the third string behind starters Mike Daniels and Kenny Clark. He has the chance to burn that reserve shirt soon enough though, depending on how hard he works and how much he wants to learn.
