2010 NFL Draft Scouting Report: Jared Odrick

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.
