Ansel Nedore On3 Scouting Summary

The following is the On3 Scouting Summary for Ansel Nedore:

“One of the leanest, most athletic 250-plus pound defensive linemen in the country. Stands in just over 6-foot-2.5, 250 pounds with a 6-foot-9 wingspan. Violent and explosive off the ball. Anchors surprisingly well at the point of attack for his size. Threw 45-foot-9 in the shot put during his junior track and field season. Shocks opponents with his hands and sheds with malicious intent. Tallied 57 total tackles and 11 tackles for loss during his junior season. Needs to add mass in order to kick inside at the next level. Can add more weight effortlessly. High NFL upside if able to maintain movement skills with added mass. One of the youngest defensive linemen in the 2023 recruiting cycle.”
