Desmond Umeozulu

As a College Recruit

Long-limbed edge rusher whose burst and length allow him to consistently terrorize offensive tackles on Friday nights. Towering edge defender who stands 6-foot-6, 235 pounds and sports a 6-foot-8 wingspan with 10-inch hands. Jumped a 28.5-inch vertical and ran an electronically-timed 4.65 shuttle during the spring camp circuit prior to his senior season. Quality burst off the line of scrimmage. Likes to use speed to power and possesses the arm length to initiate contact early and effectively. Strong at the point of attack and does a tremendous job anchoring in the run game. Hand usage is terrific, rarely ever stuck on blockers when defending the run or as a pass rusher. Lacks ideal suddenness and twitch, more of a smooth mover than explosive as an athlete. Solid bend and flexibility given his size. Tremendous prospect whose physical gifts raise his ceiling with technical skills that allow him to produce early on at the next level.
