I like Ossai too, was watching some film on (#49)Taquon Graham who I think is very underrated btw and Ossai jumped out a lot. Love his motor, physicality, and explosiveness. My only knock on him, while very explosive he's a tad late on getting to that 5th gear, his get offs at the LOS doesn't have that initial burst that scares OTs. He also sometimes rushes without a plan or a counter if his initial move gets stuck. But overall he's a good prospect IMO.

From what I heard he is a better fit as a 34 olb with shades of Orakpo.

He might be a fit in Demeco's hybrid 3-4 something or other Under the Wide 9 defense.

He is a 34OLB yes, but we would be using him to rush in Nickel, and so it's not an issue unless you're using your first round pick on him expecting a 3 down DE with his hand in the dirt

WE obviously not a 3-4 team, but IF Meco can go back in the old days and have this guy like Charles The Elephant Haley type of a EDGE player, he could be something... he can't drop back into coverage, not in the NFL, and he's not like Aldon Smith type of DE... he can be Elephant for now until his body developed the way Haley and Tuck did later on.

He's very quick and also strong, he'd be an excellent fit. Also got some leadership qualities.

Well said. Dee Ford is technically a "34 OLB" as well by dinosaur standards, but it's 2021. There's no excuse to avoid a pass rusher in 2021.

Could very well ended up being the best EDGE in this class. He's still new to the game, haven't scratched the surface yet. Only started playing football in 7th grade. Been putting up a lot of pressure for someone who plays off the ball most of the time. A team that develops him as a fulltime hand on dirt EDGE could reap the benefits by his 3rd season. Love his pursuit and his motor. He doesn't take plays off and always plays the hardest on the field.
