Strengths: Good body frame with room to bulk Outstanding penetrator; knows how to get up the field and disrupt Very quick; nice agility Energizer bunny; love his motor Very fast, strong hands Nice balance and athleticism Physical football player Very active and focused on the field Flashes great instincts Displays some upside Can play 3-technique; potential to play 5-technique (3-4 DE)
Weaknesses: Inconsistent with leverage; will get too high A little thin in upper body; must bulk up Lacks a base Can be run at Struggles against bigger linemen Has some off-field issues
Summary: I really like Odrick as a prospect if teams view him as coachable. If he adds some strength, he has a lot of potential as a 3-4 defensive end, or 5-technique. However, he will NOT fit every 4-3 scheme. His bread and butter is getting up the field using his quickness and hands. Teams like Buffalo, Minnesota, and Indianapolis might be interested. Odrick is a second-round prospect, but a darkhorse for the first round.
Player Comparison: Tony Brown. Brown is a one-gap penetrator in Tennessee; he is very quick, has great hands, but struggles when teams run at him.
