With how good Ohio State has been over the past few seasons, eyes will be on where Egbuka will end up in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Emeka Egbuka Scouting Profile
Strengths
Emeka Egbuka thrives when he can work in space. While that space may be hard to come by in the NFL, Egbuka has shown that he can find the soft spot in the defense while working out of the slot and on the outside. Being able to work that middle of the field comes by way of Egbuka’s crisp cuts and route-running ability. The great route running comes with footwork that already looks like it is NFL level. After the catch, Egbuka is strong enough to bounce off of defenders and use a strong stiff arm.
Weaknesses
While his lateral quickness is there when talking about working in space, Egbuka is not the fastest player in the 2025 NFL Draft and will get beaten by faster defenders. His vertical routes, like posts and comebacks, are nowhere near as effective as his crossers. He will likely not see much work in the screen game early, as he struggles to get a good first step off the line of scrimmage.
