Phillips just finished his senior year for the Cardinal, but would have been eligible for another campaign because he suffered a season-ending injury in the first game in 2015. His 103 tackles this season led the team and were remarkably high for a defensive lineman.
Phillips, who can play defensive end or tackle, was a first-team All-Pac-12 selection and also finished the year with 17 tackles for loss.
ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr. ranks Phillips as the No. 6 defensive tackle eligible for the draft. Stanford listed him at 6-foot-4, 255 pounds.
