One NFL talent evaluator recently weighed in with their thoughts on Jacksonville Jaguars’<\/a> linebacker Foyesade Oluokun.<\/p>\n

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler<\/a>\u00a0has been speaking with NFL executives, coaches, and scouts as he compiles his ranking of the top 10 players at each position group.<\/p>\n

At the linebacker position, Oluokun, after being top 10 in the 2024 rankings, found himself on the outside looking in this year as an honorable mention<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here is what one NFL personnel evaluator said to Fowler about Oluokun’s game:<\/p>\n

“Solid pro,” the evaluator told Fowler. “Tackling machine. Doesn’t have a great playmaking element to his game but can be schemed as a rusher on interior pressures.”<\/p>\n

Although Oluokun dropped in these rankings and Devin Lloyd wasn’t even mentioned, <\/a>Pro Football Focus is extremely bullish <\/a>on the Jaguars<\/a>‘ linebacker room this season, ranking them fifth as an overall unit entering the 2025 season.<\/p>\n

By PFF’s metrics<\/a>, Lloyd was one of the best linebackers against the run last season, while Oluokun has often provided a steady presence, especially in the run game and as a blitzer.<\/p>\n

Further elevating the play of Oluokun, Lloyd, and the position as a whole could be the addition of defensive coordinator Anthony Campanile and his scheme.<\/p>\n

Campanile has been a linebackers coach at the NFL level up to this point in his coaching career, and he’s bringing a defensive system to Jacksonville that helped Packers<\/a>‘ linebackers Quay Walker and Edgerrin Cooper play some high level football last season.<\/p>\n
