Name: Joseph Ossai Position: Edge-Rusher College: Texas Height: 6’4” Weight: 256 lbs Overall Rank: No. 27 overall Position Rank: EDGE3 Strengths: A plus-level athlete with impressive work ethic, motor and drive, Ossai dominated the Big 12 in 2020. Ossai has the needed twitch in his first step to stun offensive tackles and uses his length well to create space and separation while bending the edge. He’s still learning the position, too, which points to considerable upside once he’s in a familiar role and has time to add reps with his hand in the dirt. Unlike many of the 2021 pass-rushers, Ossai has the production to match the traits. Teams may be scared off by his lack of experience, but the arrow is pointing up on his stock thanks to fantastic athleticism, a great pro day workout, and a reputation as a hard worker.
