Scouting Report: Strengths
- He's not an elite pass rusher and projects as a left end in a 4-3 defense. If Fehoko layers on more muscle, he might fit in the 3-4. Size, strength and versatility should push him into the top 75 picks.
- Fehoko has the quickness and flexibility to consistently dip and bend around the edge.
- Plays with leverage at the point of attack whether inside or outside. Keeps eyes in the backfield when inside; moves linemen to either side with strong hands.
- He’s flexible enough to bend the edge, and he’s at his best when he can use his quickness and change-of-direction abilities to counter back inside.
- A savvy, versatile and instinctive edge rusher who did a little bit of everything, he was especially effective getting to the quarterback.
- Fehoko shows good quickness off the line of scrimmage and flashes the violent hands to win around the edge.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- While Fehoko moves well laterally, he doesn’t always get there in pursuit.
- Fehoko struggles to shed blockers and doesn’t show ideal lateral movement skills. He also needs to make better use of his length and hands in the pass rush.
- Fehoko plays with poor anchor strength and too often fails to set the edge against bigger linemen.
