Intriguing "do-everything" prospect with unusual versatility that could see him getting reps in all three phases. Andersen has good size and toughness with the ball in his hands, but he's transitioned to a full-time linebacker role. However, he's still inexperienced at the position, which shows in his instincts and technique at that spot. Despite those concerns, he was an extremely productive playmaker, using his physical tools and motor to shine. Teams will likely look to grow Andersen's linebacker IQ while playing him as a core special-teamer, but he might have potential on packaged plays on offense.
With only one year as a full-time starter at Montana State and a lack of NFL size, Hardy faces longer odds to hear his name called on Day 3 of the draft. However, his disruptive production, premium testing numbers and explosive rush potential are enough to garner attention. He needs more size and technique work but has special teams ability that will help him compete for a roster or practice squad spot as a 3-4 rush linebacker.
