BJ Ojulari Draft Profile
Strengths
BJ Ojulari is one of the most skilled edge rushers in the 2023 NFL Draft. He has a great burst off of the line, then he has a variety of moves to win or counter against blockers. Ojulari has fantastic bend and flexibility, and he is a great overall athlete at the position.
Weaknesses
While Ojulari seems to have all of the skills needed to be an edge rusher in the NFL, he has size concerns. At only 6-2, he doesn’t have the length that is often needed against today’s big, athletic tackles. He already allowed blockers to get to his pads too often in college, and this will likely become worse at the next level.
