Scouting Report: Strengths
- He’s an explosive mover who plays an aggressive, physical style. He’s extremely instinctive playing the run, and when Okie was at his best he showed sideline-to-sideline range.
- Tougher between the tackles than many expect. Fluid and quick drop into zone, covers enough ground to be Tampa-2 "MIKE" and knows where the markers are.
- Okie has quickness in his hands and uses his length effectively.
- Can attack the edge with speed and has the flexibility to dip low and under the tackle's reach.
- Gets pressures on inside stunts and was too explosive for college guards to handle.
- Works hard to get better and gives top effort on every play. Heads-up defender who shows good field awareness.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- His lateral agility and burst often put him in position to make big plays, but Okie takes questionable routes to the ball and struggles to avoid blockers when in pursuit.
- Possesses average instincts. More likely to make plays with quick reactions than by diagnosing.
- Generally an effective openfield tackler but doesn't wrap up consistently. Shows only average awareness in coverage.
