64/100
Big Board #87

"He had a draftable season, a top-ranked defense behind him and an open door to the NFL, and he chose one more year in Columbus instead."

A 6-6, 263-pound defensive end who posted 11 tackles for loss and 6.5 sacks in 14 games for Ohio State's top-ranked 2025 defense, then returned for a fifth-year season. Rare length and a real power element, still short of the every-down consistency the frame promises.

What he does well
  • 01Length — a 6-6 frame with matching reach lets him land the long-arm first and control tackles at a distance where they cannot punch back.
  • 02Efficiency — 11 tackles for loss on a rotational snap count means he disrupted at a higher per-snap rate than his raw totals suggest.
