Player Notes

David Ojabo Bio

  • David Ojabo is a bit raw and undeveloped but has elite traits entering the league which gives him the upside to be a top-tier pass-rusher.
  • Has elite explosiveness and bend; great length and good enough strength to be an elite number-one pass rusher in the future
  • Showed a great development tract for someone only been playing football for five years
  • Has a well-rounded set of pass-rush moves for a prospect, and has shown the ability to pull off counter movers
  • He will be a liability in run defense early on, though he has the traits to improve
  • Needs more experience to be a quality starter, and will likely need good coaching and circumstances to reach his true potential
