PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT

Donovan Ezeiruaku is a fluid, bendy pass rusher with an advanced hand-fighting repertoire and natural feel for getting to the quarterback. His ability to win with finesse, leverage, and counter moves allows him to be a consistent pass-rush threat, but he lacks elite burst and play strength to hold up against bigger offensive tackles. While not a pure power rusher, his ability to convert speed to power, along with his bend and ankle flexion, makes him a high-upside pass-rush specialist. Ezeiruaku fits best as a 3-4 OLB in a blitz-heavy scheme, but he also has the versatility to play as a 4-3 DE in sub-packages. Expect him to start as a rotational edge rusher and develop into a three-down defender with added weight and strength.

CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS

High-End Starter Potential (65-69)
A player expected to become a top-tier starter within their first few years. They possess strong physical tools and good technical skills but may have some limitations in their game. With development, they can reach near-elite levels and provide consistent impact at their position.
