Alex Okafor is best suited for a one-gap 4-3 penetrating front where his quickness and size can be leveraged to disrupt the backfield.
He projects as a rotational pass rusher in year one, with the ceiling to develop into an every-down starting defensive end.
He would be a poor fit in a two-gapping 3-4 front, where his athletic traits would be underutilized.
Okafor's combination of size and speed makes him a versatile piece on the defensive line, capable of both pass rushing and setting the edge against the run.
