It was clonamery. If we end up drafting Abasiri, he can officially claim to be first

As many have said, film don't lie.

I'm not seeing what others aren't seeing. Why isn't he ranked higher? Perfect body type, excellent athleticism, and as that clip, and others, demonstrate, has the strength to play in the NFL.

I love this clip of him. Imagine being a QB being confronted with that behemoth splitting a double team.

Is this DT class potantially better than '24?

My only concern is his size. He's listed a 6-2, 312 but he looks shorter than that. Also, only a true junior so may not declare.

Phew! Adding fuel to the 'this DT class is elite' argument. Fastest DTs according to Draft buzz.

1. A'Mauri Washington, Oregon - 4.85 seconds at 330lbs

2. francis Brewu, Pitt - 4.85 at 285

2. Mateen Ibiroga, Texas Tech - 4.85 at 296

4. James Smith, Ohio state (frmly Alabama) - 4.88 at 297

5. David Oke, Arkansas - 4.90 at 312

5. David Stone, Oklahoma - 4.90 at 310

5. Jehiem Oatis, Ole Miss - 4.90 at 325

5. Justin Scott, Miami - 4.90 at 298

5. Stephiylan Green, LSU - 4.90 at 290

10. Jayden Jackson, Oklahoma - 4.95 at 322!

10. Ahmad Moten, Miami - 4.95 at 325

It would be quite something if 11 draftable DTs broke 5 seconds.

Jehiem Oatis very intriguing.

I need to look into him. Right now, Jayden Jackson is the one I'm drawn to outside of the top 5. A little short but he has the size to compliment Milton Williams and a really good get off which could suggest a pass rushing upside.
