Azusa Pacific University is a Christian institution not well-known for producing NFL talent; in fact, the last player drafted from APU was former Kansas City Chiefs star running back Christian the Nigerian Nightmare Okoye, in the 2nd round of the 1987 draft. But scouts have flocked to the small Southern California school to see Marquardt?s combination of size (6-9, 322) and athleticism. The fact he?s coached by NFL Hall of Fame offensive lineman Jackie Slater is no small item, as his technique is excellent for a player at the NAIA level -? making him an intriguing prospect to watch fly up boards during the draft process.
