PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT
Reese is a modern front-seven weapon best deployed as a hybrid MIKE/SAM/EDGE in multiple fronts. His true three-down impact comes from his ability to stack blocks in base, rush with power on passing downs, and plug gaps in blitz-heavy looks. His style mirrors a "Micah Parsons-lite" — not as fluid in coverage, but with a similarly dominant edge presence, overwhelming power, and inside-out utility. Ideal fits include teams running multiple fronts (Baltimore, Dallas, SF, NE) with a commitment to pressure packages and disguise.
CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS
Near Elite (70-74)
A high-caliber prospect who is expected to become a significant contributor by Year 2. These players have outstanding physical tools and strong football IQ, with only minor flaws in their game. They demonstrate consistency at a high level and project as future Pro Bowl-caliber players if properly developed.
