Julian Okwara, EDGE, Notre Dame
Post Combine
I'm a big fan of what I see from Julian Okwara on tape. Love how he uses his length.

Dude is incredibly bendy and has a pretty potent first step as well. He has a nice array of moves in his arsenal.
He needs to add more strength to his frame, but his game is a ton of fun.
S Jalen Elliott (@Jae_Uno_) and DE Julian Okwara (@julian_okwara) continue to work hard through the Covid-19 pandemic and held a Pro Day on Thursday.

-Lengthy? Check.

-Athletic? Oh yeah.
-Raw, with a high ceiling? You bet.

Don’t want y’all to forget about Julian Okwara. He deserves some talk with the rest of the top of this class. https://t.co/QUZ2UWccCS

Okwara has an effective bull rush. Does well here with his placement and drive to get the QB off his spot pic.twitter.com/hYUZ3GJYVI

Pre Combine
Julian Okwara is the forgotten player in this class but he’s got scary potential. Might be one of the best athletes at edge you’ll see in any class. Period. Raw, but he’s beyond rangy and his fluidity and burst is top 15 type stuff
