DeMarvion Overshown has the ability to take control of the game. Absolute game changer. Overshown doesn’t take a lot of plays off – instead, he plays almost every snap with relentless intensity. He’s an explosive defender who’s routinely on the highlight reel with his big hits and explosive plays. While he has the big play potential on any play, Overshown is far from a perfect prospect and could slip for some of his inconsistencies.

DeMarvion Overshown scouting notes
Pros:
- Very quick. Excellent burst, very explosive.
- Vicious tackler. Excellent wrap up technique. So solid and constantly breaks on plays he isn’t normally expected to make.
- Excellent blitz timing.
- Smart, effective zone coverage. Needs to drop better into his zone.
- Excellent instincts. Always seems to be in the right position to make a play.
Cons:
- Doesn’t move well laterally.
- Struggles to change direction effectively.
- Pursuit angles are about average. He can get there but he’s inconsistent, especially when moving to the boundary.
- No real pass rushing ability. Struggles to get off of blocks even from tight ends.
- Recognizes plays but needs to move into a better position sometimes to be more effective.
