Braxton was impressed with the spin move. Or at least, that’s the word on the street.

Just what I was think, he has a wide variety of moves and excellent use of hands. The spin move is particularly impressive and he sets it up very well. Man is he going to be a good one.

He's not as short as the player I'm about to mention but he reminds me of Dwight Freeney.

Even if he's a little undersized, they're probably going to sign 2 absolute monsters in JT and Jack, if not more.

OSU has also been spoiled with a whole pile of generational talents at DE (by OSU standards). Joey was a pro bowler. Nick flipped a terrible team into a near super bowl winner, and now Chase is even more highly regarded. Compared to them (or Hubbard, etc), I could his height coming up in conversation, but not as a major roadblock to his future.

Noah Spence, Jamal Marcus & Tyquan Lewis are the only guys I can think of that weren’t the long athlete we’ve grown to see since Urban arrived.

Does someone have Adeleye's arm length? I thought I read that his arms length was good compared to his lesser height.

Spence = height ok but not wingspan, before draft. Would've been top-20 pick without off-field issues.

Lewis measurements
  • Height: 6-3 2/8”
  • Weight: 269 lbs
  • Hand size: 10 3/8”
  • Arm length: 33 6/8”
  • Wingspan: 80 1/8”

He Tweeted that his wingspan is 84”. If true, that’s very long for someone in the 6’4” range!

Sam Hubbard was 78. There's surely a chance of measuring error, but it suggests his wingspan overcomes some of his alleged height weaknesses. All of which is too much bluster trying to overshadow his excellent skillset.
