Im all in on ezieraku and Oluwafemi Oladejo brugler's write up BACKGROUND: Oluwafemi (o-loo-WAH-feh-me) "Femi" Oladejo (ole-uh-DAY-jo), one of four children, was born in the Sacramento, Calif., area. His parents were born and raised in Nigeria and immigrated to the United States shortly before Femi was born (his two older siblings were both born in Nigeria). After his parents separated, he spent time in the Houston area with his father before returning to the Sacramento area and settling in Elk Grove with his mother (Victoria Gbodi). Oladejo started playing football at age 9 and "instantly" fell in love with the sport. He played defensive end, nose tackle and linebacker throughout Pop Warner. He was also an avid basketball player growing up, including for the Predators in an AAU league (coached by his uncle). Oladejo's first name means "God loves me" in Yoruba language. Oladejo attended Cosumnes Oaks High (south of Sacramento), where he was a three-year letterman. After starting out on the freshman and JV teams, he moved up to varsity as a sophomore and played both ways as a linebacker, defensive end and tight end. Oladejo accounted for 40 tackles and four tackles for loss as a sophomore, adding five catches for 74 yards. As a junior, he led Cosumnes Oaks to an 8-4 finish and the semifinals of the 2019 state playofs. Oladejo posted 84 tackles, 14 tackles for loss, five sacks and four forced fumbles, along with nine catches for 177 yards (19.7 average) and three touchdowns. He was poised for a big senior year, but the 2020 season was canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic. A three-star recruit, Oladejo was the 84th-ranked linebacker in the 2021 recruiting class and the No. 68 recruit in California. His productive junior season put him on the radar of several West Coast schools, including San Jose, which gave him his first ofer in December 2019. Oladejo added ofers the following spring from Colorado State, Fresno State, Nevada, San Diego State, Utah State and Wyoming. He added his first then-Power 5 ofer from Kansas (April 20202) followed by ofers from Arizona, Cal and Colorado. Before the pandemic shut down recruiting visits, Oladejo had visited Cal, which ultimately helped him feel comfortable committing to the Bears in July 2019. He was the 10th-ranked recruit in head coach Justin Wilcox's 2021 class. After two seasons, Oladejo entered the transfer portal and signed with UCLA. He graduated with a degree from UCLA, with a 3.3 GPA (June 2024). Oladejo accepted his invitation to the Senior Bowl and was named the defensive MVP of the game. STRENGTHS: ● Straight out of central casting with his physique and body type ● Plays with power in his hands to separate from blocks ● Uses length and forward lean to attack the chest and put blockers on their heels ● Flashes developing spin and cross-chop moves that got sharper with each game ● Former of-ball linebacker; plays with range-reaction quickness to slip blocks in the run game ● Plays smart and physical as a contain player and doesn't get pushed around ● Slams into pullers and creates congestion on the edges in the run game ● Mug blitzer — comfortable rushing from diferent angles ● Teammates rave about his efort and energy, and both show on tape WEAKNESSES: ● Doesn't have deep bag of rush/counter moves ● Can dip the corner but doesn't consistently flatten and will be pushed past the pocket ● Needs to develop more of a pass-rush plan to keep blockers guessing ● Too easily kneecapped and needs to better protect himself against cut blocks ● Needs to calm momentum as a break-down player to avoid missed tackles ● Peel/drop player in coverage but late to react to running back routes ● Too many undisciplined moments on tape, including a roughing penalty vs. Washington and a taunting penalty on fourth down vs. Nebraska, which gave the Cornhuskers a fresh set of downs and led to a touchdown SUMMARY: A two-year starter at UCLA, Oladejo moved to a stand-up edge rusher role in defensive coordinator Ikaika Malloe's hybrid front seven, mostly in a two-point stance. After playing Mike linebacker for two seasons at Cal and his first year at UCLA (at 255 pounds), he transitioned to his new position three games into the 2024 season (initially, just for one game, but it turned into a permanent move). Losing the green dot allowed him to "do less thinking and more attacking," and he led the Bruins in tackles for loss (13.5) and sacks (4.5) in 2024. As a run defender, Oladejo is both physical and rangy, with the violence in his hands to shed and the closing speed to chase down the football from the backside. His pass rush is more basic than advanced right now, but he isn't shy about using speed to power and creating leverage with upward strikes. Overall, Oladejo ofers pass-rush upside as he continues to evolve his attack plan and arsenal of moves, but he has the disruptive qualities — his power and efort — to see immediate NFL snaps. He has three-down potential, although convincing NFL teams that he is coachable enough to reach his ceiling will be key for him throughout the draft process. GRADE: 2nd-3rd round (No. 64 overall)

He has a contract this year.

Bills First Rnd pick in 2025 draft: Maxwell Hairston - CB - Kentucky
MikePJ76 replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall
Oh no. We better cut him this afternoon he definitely can’t play. months and months of this whining now. People are miserable and just insist on making everyone miserable with them. -
Shedur has never played for a coach other than his dad. who wants to deal with the two of them when the chips are down? Being a qb in the nfl means being the leader of the team and setting the tone when you personally are struggling or the team is. sanders just like his dad blames his teammates. the old saying if you are going to point the finger you better be ready to pull the thumb allies 1 million percent to shedur. Imagine this kid in a big market after losing and throwing a few interceptions. He might burn the building down.

Yea I was listening to Sal interview the Kentucky beat writer and when he said that I couldn’t believe it. So none of the draft guys who spend all their time doing this didn’t know that? says a lot I love Buffalo plus. Them being negative will not change that at all. They have every right to be negative or critical. All of our opinions are equal. i just thought it felt like they were being contrarian just to be. Kind of like how Dan said Kincaid is just a guy and last years offense will never be any good. im a fan of Buffalo plus. They just went overboard last night with the negativity. -

They already said no to that. Sal didn’t point out this morning though that ingram could do that if they wanted but probably won’t with him either. -

My god I just watched Buffalo plus recap. 100% negativity. They even insinuated beane was upset, didn’t want him and was defensive about the pick. ridiculous. This is what happens when you obsess over wr 90% of your football viewing time. its going to be months of hearing about how this guy can’t tackle and is too small when he is 5”11 somewhere between 183 and 192 and has 31 7/8th inch arms. absurd. -
I wonder if they will resign Dawuane Smoot before the weekend is over. he is versatile and played well before the injury last year.

the only thing you can't coach this guy is carrying around a dump truck full of.....SPEED. Cant wait to see how he handles the bigger guys he will face this year in Cincy, Pitt etc. -

most people do not even know who is on what roster. I was listening to the cowboys websites draft show because i like the info broaddus has. When buffalo picked they said hairston is the new starting corner then said buffalo does not have any good corners and then laughed at somebody name johnson, benford, ingram etc. these guys are paid to cover the nfl 365/24/7. they also think elam is great. -
They may have taken the best player on the board. They changed strength and conditioning coaches because they wanted more speed in the secondary and power up front. They just injected a guy who runs 4.28 and topped out at 24.25 mph. He catches the ball like a wr. He is going to be a great fit here, he is already close with Ray Davis. one of the leagues best defenses at getting takeaways just added a guy that has the makeup to get a whole bunch of them.

he is the same size as a guy like pac man jones. Size of his body was never a problem, now the size of jones brain was an issue. -
I wish the bills could get farmer and ezieraku tomorrow. they can't but it would be great if they could.

Someone alert the community of Kansas City Missouri. Josh Simmons will be moving to your area to play for the chiefs, be advised he may hit you with his car while drunk, while racing other chiefs players, he may beat up your wife/sister/mother or daughter. Also be advised he may sell your children drugs or buy drugs from your children. So be advised people of Kansas City.

Greg Cosell on hairston...18 minute mark.

I remember greg cosell saying on one bills live that hairston was the best corner in the draft. I am excited. the secondary needed help and now it seems deep.
