BJ Ojulari scouting notes
Pros:
- Solid speed. Excellent athlete. Sort of a RUSH EDGE/Off Ball LB hybrid.
- Lateral quickness is good, not great.
- Has good body control to turn his body and move wherever he has to. Changes direction and pursuit angles well.
- Explosive athlete.
- Flashes some excellent bend.
- Very strong hands.
- Ojulari’s hand placement is good enough to continuously drive the blocker back with a solid stiff arm and patience through the rep.
- Good pursuit angles to the perimeter.
Cons:
- Struggles in technique with hand fighting. He doesn’t consistently have a plan entering a rep. When he does, he is an effective pass rusher.
- Average tackler. Doesn’t show much of anything special, doesn’t wrap up as well as he needs to.
- Struggled with injuries a bit in his career.
