Yup just saw that best two snaps for him so far
Whewwww!! Showing off his arsenal of moves today. Looks like mini Khalil Mack here with the stab+forklift move.

Ogbonnia Okoronkwo, EDGE, Oklahoma

He's not the biggest guy (6013, 243 pounds, 34.5″ arms) but the man simply knows how to win on the edge. A twitched up pass rusher, Okoronkwo spent the week running circles around the offensive tackles. While that wasn't unexpected, his ability to play the run truly popped. Despite less-than-ideal height and weight measurements, Okoronkwo held his own setting the edge and squeezing gaps.

Okoronkwo proved that he has every down ability in Mobile which will go a long way in helping his draft stock.

Lol, alligator arms.

More like orangutan arms, especially for a dude his height.

He really is Elvis Dumervil.

Isn't 34.5" relatively short?

No

for reference, Armstead has 33" arms, and Buckner has 34 3/8" arms. OO is longer than both.

Weren't Aldons like 35+?

Aldon was a freak of nature

Whoa, I didn't see all of that for myself, I missed day 2, and was distracted yesterday. If he truly can hold up setting the edge at SAM cracking our Base D, and being an obvious terror on 3rd down he has to be considered.

I'm not yet convinced, but certainly intrigued.

Again it would take some manoeuvring, but Lynch has already shown a willingness to do that.

Man if he shows he can hold up in the run game then he has to be in play at #9

The dude is an IDEAL LEO.

If Hasson Reddick can go #12 to Arizona then Double O can go top 10. He is superior in every facet to Reddick.
If he tests well at the combine he will be a top 10 pick.

He is everything teams look for in edge rushers.

Those clips look eerily similar to Von Miller
Man, I think he is quickly climbing up my draft board. He is exactly what we need. He has double digit sack potential as a rookie

5T- Solomon Thomas
NT- Sheldon Day
3T- Deforest Buckner
LEO- Ogbonnia Okoronkwo

I LOVE the looks of that

Whoa whoa whoa, pump those brakes! Holding up at SAM vs TE's is a lot different from holding up against LT's!

There's no way he's an every down LEO, and no way he's worth a top 10 pick.

Reddick was drafted to play off the ball and cover RB's and TE's whilst also being able to rush OO does not have that versatility.

I'm really starting to come around on this kid. Looks like he can really bring some heat off the edge for us.

I would be thrilled if we could sign Ansah and draft OO with #9/10. We'd instantly fix our pass rush.

He isn't a SAM.

Maybe Reddick offers more versatility but OO is 10x the pass rusher that Reddick is. And teams put a premium on that.

He is an edge rusher and probably the drafts best one.

Practicing against Orlando Brown I'm sure helped him a lot.
