Scouting Report
Physically, Abasiri is a Big Ten defensive end. He has the frame and all of the natural tools, and he moves and bends well. His high school team has leveraged Abasiri’s versatility by moving him around the defensive line, alternating him between defensive tackle and defensive end. There is a lot of room for development, especially in terms of his technique and being explosive off the snap. But Abasiri is the type of prospect you simply have to secure when he is in your backyard.
