- He has the kind of turn-and-run fluidity to be used in man coverage as well, able to run with tight ends and running backs.
- He’s at his best in coverage. He’s a fluid mover capable of turning and running with tight ends or mirroring backs coming out of the backfield.
- Good closing speed with long arms to drag down quarterbacks and running backs.
- He’s an instinctive and active chase-and-tackle 4-3 Will, with the speed to go sideline to sideline. He takes excellent angles. Ulofoshio also has an innate sense for shooting gaps as a run defender.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Often avoids blocks to survive between the tackles, which gives backs running lanes. Ulofoshio will jump at hesitation routes.
- He’s going to have to add weight, and even then Ulofoshio will likely be a liability against the run.
- He is slow to locate the ball and too often overruns plays, easily fooled by counters and misdirections. Ulofoshio has limited experience in coverage, and his awareness when dropping into zone will likely be an issue.
