Joseph Ossai is one of the more underrated edge rushers in the 2021 NFL Draft. He hasn’t been at EDGE for long, as he was largely an off-ball linebacker in 2019. But in 2020, he switched to EDGE, and he was a natural at his new position. In nine games in 2020, Ossai logged 5.5 sacks and 15.5 tackles for loss, while also forcing three fumbles.
Standing at around 6-foot-4, 253 pounds, Ossai has an incredibly long frame, and he combines that length with impressive explosiveness and urgency off the line. He recently logged an otherworldly 41.5-inch vertical at Texas’ pro day. Were he to be drafted by Cleveland, he and Myles Garrett would make up one of the most athletic EDGE duos in the NFL.
