Draft Profile: Bio
Khordae Sydnor from Iona Preparatory High School was rated a 3-star recruit by ESPN and handed a 3-star grade by 247 Sports. After high school, Sydnor joined Purdue.

In 2021 as a freshman Sydnor saw action in 4 games and played a total of 19 snaps for the Boilermakers. He recorded no tackles, no assists, while adding no stops.

As a sophomore for the Boilermakers in 2022 Sydnor played in 13 games and took part in 317 snaps for the Boilermakers. He recorded 13 tackles, 4 assists, while adding 13 stops. As a pass rusher, he chalked up 16 total pressures, and 10 QB hurries, one QB hit, and 5 sacks during the year.

In 2023 as a junior Sydnor played in 10 games and contributed on 157 snaps. He recorded only 2 tackles, one assist while making 3 stops. As a pass rusher, he produced 11 total pressures, which included 7 QB hurries, one QB hit, and 3 sacks on the year.
Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Plays with leverage at the point of attack whether inside or outside. Keeps eyes in the backfield when inside; moves linemen to either side with strong hands.
  • His hand use is excellent; he’s strong in the upper body and consistently swats away blockers.
  • Sydnor has an excellent feel for working off blockers and knowing how and when to counter as the play goes on.
  • He's not an elite pass rusher and projects as a left end in a 4-3 defense. If Sydnor layers on more muscle, he might fit in the 3-4. Size, strength and versatility should push him into the top 75 picks.
  • He explodes off the line with a quick first step, with agile feet to counter inside and closing burst to finish plays.
  • Sydnor is strong enough in the lower body to hold up at the point of attack, and he displays a good feel as a grappler in the phone booth, consistently getting blockers off-balance before sending them to the ground.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • While Sydnor has violent hands, he uses them too inconsistently. Sydnor tends to let blockers get into his chest, and he’ll waste time hand fighting due to a limited array of pass rush moves.
  • Sydnor lacks elite traits in the pass rush and will need to develop a counter move.
  • Lean lower body - must improve core and leg strength. Suspect body flexibility and tight hips.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
