He isn't "just" a pass rush specialist which is so cool about Ossai. He is a great run stopper. 3 down End and can play LB
and even 3-tech if we need him to. Crazy versatility, but yeah, he has one heck of a pass rush too if he can stay healthy.

These aforementioned types of players are what I believe they are hoping Ossai can mold into, and of course if he does, it will have been a great pick. Hopefully we shall see this year.
Dare I say Micah Parsons.

6'4"
255 lbs
4.62 forty
41.5 vertical
Insane numbers. Don't know how he fell past the early 2nd round, let alone all the way to us in the early 3rd...

Really excited to see what he can do this year in basically his rookie season. We need to be patient with him this year since he is coming off injury and essentially a rookie.
We can include his production along with all of the rookies this year. Anything he brings to the table as a rookie is just more improvement on a team that went to the SB last year.
Uh oh, you said it LF40 lol
But it is true, it will be his first snaps in NFL regular season games if he stays healthy knock on wood.
