Azeez Ojulari is a 3-4 style Edge player who has good wheels and body control. He has a high motor and can use his speed to put tackles in conflict. He is a strong run game defender who can track down the ball carrier with his short-area quickness. Ojulari still must improve in many areas, and his projection across all NFL draft boards is based on upside. His size is a big question mark where he might not win consistently on edge vs. more physically and fleet-footed tackles. < Back Azeez Ojulari Georgia HT: 6030 WT: 240 YR: RSO POS: ED OVR RK 34 POS RK CEILING POTENTIAL 4 High-End Starter Potential OVR RK PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT Azeez Ojulari is a 3-4 style Edge player who has good wheels and body control.

David Ojabo is an impressive prospect who stepped into the spotlight along with his teammate Aidan Hutchinson in 2021 at Michigan. Ojabo is a disruptive edge rusher who uses a lethal combination of speed and power with his length to maneuver around blockers on his way to the QB drop point. When he cannot get a sack, he has a knack for the strip-sack using his long arms to swipe at the football. He displays a unique ability to contort his body with good balance and bend when working the edge. He can play standing up or with his hand on the ground. In 2021, Ojabo has flourished in new Defensive Coordinator Mike MacDonalds Baltimore Ravens-style defense that often features a 2-4-5 defense where he and Aidan Hutchinson play standing up on the edges. He uses his length and lateral quickness in the run game to reel in opposing runners out of the backfield. He has good strength and often defeats opposing blockers who try to anchor him in the run game. He can take on a run blocker and stand his ground and has displayed strong hand usage when needed to detach using a swipe move to detach. Overall, Ojabo has an instant impact payer ceiling that is undeniable. He has not come close to his full potential, and whatever team decides to draft Ojabo will be investing in a player one or two years away from becoming a potential elite-level NFL player. Once at the NFL level, he needs to improve his hand usage and ability to detach from his blocker. He currently relies heavily on his physical gifts, but that's why the upside is so intriguing. < Back David Ojabo Michigan HT: 6050 WT: 250 YR: JR POS: ED OVR RK 24 POS RK CEILING POTENTIAL 6 Near Elite OVR RK PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT David Ojabo is an impressive prospect who stepped into the spotlight along with his teammate Aidan Hutchinson in 2021 at Michigan.

Trey lance is an exceptional athlete who possesses excellent deep-ball accuracy. What Lance doesn't show a lot of on film is his short to intermediate accuracy, and that's an area that he might need time to develop. Lance is not a scheme-dependent player; he can fit in any system and excel more in a play-action-based offense. When compared to other prospects, Lance lacks reps. He played one game in 2020, with 2019 being his only full season as a starter.

The 2022 NFL Draft will have no shortage of edge rushers. George Karlaftis is another powerful edge rusher who is a projected first-round talent. Karloftis was born in Athens, Greece, and spent a good portion of his youth in Greece before coming to the United States. He didn't play organized football until middle school and would eventually become a track and field star, where he won a state title in the shot put at West Lafayette High School as a sophomore. Karlaftis boasts a high motor, with an explosive get-off allowing him to get on top of his blockers in pass sets. He has a wide array of pass rush moves involving his hands, and he uses his leverage to win one-on-one battles with a good combo of power and speed. He can win with a bull rush or use a spin move to gain leverage. Not a particularly flexible athlete, Karlaftis is a technician who can use various pass rush moves and power to win. He can shoot a gap and squeeze through unlikely creases or bull rush a blocker into the pocket before spinning off and making a play on the QB. His hand power is one of his key strengths. He has a powerful punch that allows him to gain leverage against his blocker. Karlaftis plays with good awareness; he has a solid pre snap pass rush plan and can improvise on the fly using an array of hand moves. He can sometimes rely too much on his power allowing his blockers to gain leverage before he decides to counter. As a run defender, Karlaftis is solid but needs to improve. His play recognition and lateral quickness are an area he needs to improve to be a more effective run defender. Karlaftis is an every-down player that can be effective in the NFL standing up or with his hand in the dirt. He does lack the size to be an effective interior defender in the NFL. He can flourish in a gap control scheme that uses multiple fronts. < Back George Karlaftis Purdue HT: 6040 WT: 275 YR: JR POS: ED OVR RK 22 POS RK CEILING POTENTIAL 5 Near Elite OVR RK PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT The 2022 NFL Draft will have no shortage of edge rushers.
