Never heard of him before. The TV guys said he was a stud wrestler though, which is awesome. Wrestling is super applicable to the OL/DL play... both all grappling and leverage, and wrestlers are some tough and extremely well-conditioned dudes.

Played well all week at the Senior Bowl. Another pass rusher. A DT Pass rusher specialist on 3rd downs

Quinn Meinerz threw him around like a rag doll. But I think Odighizuwa has a chance to be a good player.

Despite his weight, he actually played the best as a 1T with the Bruins. He knows how to use leverage and is very hard to move off a spot. To me, he is a similar player to Togiai. Undersized, former wrestlers, that know how to use leverage to their advantage.

They liked Milton Williams and he’s a very similar player. No issues with him at all in round 3.

Yeah, I like Osa and think that's a solid pick. Wonder about his fit with both Gallimore and Hill being similar players, but then again, Hill is trash

I don’t think they have much faith in Hill. Gallimore showed promise but this kid is a solid piece. The other 3rd round picks definitely questionable.

I really like Osa Odighizuwa, thought it was a round early like most did, but I'm happy to have him.

I want to use some Bear fronts and get Osa some one on ones with centers and guards like we did back in the day with Jay Ratliff.

Aaron Donald is a tweener, & he turned out all right. Had a great week at the Senior Bowl. He gains 10-15 pounds of lean muscle mass & he's a solid DT3.

Donald was never labeled or thought of as a tweener. Where'd you hear that misinformation?

Odighizuwa isn't a tweener either. He is an NFL 3T. He'll probably play in the NFL at 290-295. Which isn't too light. If they move on from Quinn, there may be some positional redundancy with Gallimore, but they would still be on the field together on passing downs

Yea but if the kid is putting on 20 pounds he’s probably losing the quickness that makes him good.

He’s best suited to be a base DE that kicks inside to rush in the nickel IMO. Hope that’s what Dallas is thinking.
