Giants Schedule Workout With Another DL

The Giants have scheduled a workout with Defensive Linemen Ollie Ogbu. Here’s a quick scouting report from sidelinescouting.com

Positives: Good first step… Reasonably explosive… Good suddenness… Can get penetration… Can get in the backfield… Plays with good leverage… Violent hands… Good swim move… Does an adequate job against the run… Can shoot gaps… Solid lateral mobility… Good flexibility and change of direction agility… Generally stays low… Good motor… Fits best in attacking or penetrating one-gap scheme… Best fit as three-technique, compares to Jay Alford.

Negatives: Undersized… Shorter than ideal arms… Not very strong or powerful, can be overwhelmed at the point of attack… Doesn’t get off blocks especially well… Can be stood up… Can be washed down the line of scrimmage… Can be slow to locate the ball… Gets a little too upright when losing sight of the ball… Relies too much on his initial quickness… Scheme limited, does not fit in an odd-man front… Will be a 24-year-old rookie.

Justin Houston and now Ollie Ogbu. The Giants love ’em some defensive linemen.
