PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT
Cashius Howell is an ascending edge defender whose combination of length, power, and first-step explosiveness translates cleanly to the next level. At 6’4”, 245 pounds, he’s built to thrive in a multiple-front or hybrid 3–4 scheme, offering immediate value as a stand-up rusher or hand-in-the-dirt end. His advanced hand usage and rush sequencing—particularly his speed-to-power conversion and inside counter—allow him to win with both finesse and physicality. Howell’s relentless motor and pursuit range make him disruptive beyond the stat sheet, while his technical maturity and competitive demeanor point to an early starter trajectory. Continued refinement of counter-timing and edge discipline will push him toward his ceiling as a top-tier NFL pass rusher with double-digit sack potential.
CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS
High-End Starter Potential (65-69)
A player expected to become a top-tier starter within their first few years. They possess strong physical tools and good technical skills but may have some limitations in their game. With development, they can reach near-elite levels and provide consistent impact at their position.
