Former UCM All-American DT David Olajiga opened some eyes with his performance @ the Mizzou Football NFL Pro Day when he displayed a rare combination of size & explosiveness
Compared to DL weighing almost 320 pounds at the
#NFL Combine David’s marks rank;
-vertical jump =
#1 (3.5” higher than
#2)
-forty yard dash =
#1 (.04 faster than
#2)
-bench press =
#2
…and he’d hit
38 reps during prep phase, if not for the fatigue from the condensed pro day schedule he likely holds the
#1 mark there as well for the 2024 class.
We’re told scouts in attendance had a range of
4.97-5.13 for his 2 forty yard dash runs)
David, who may be an International Player Pathway candidate, compares favorably to former NFL Draft picks like Eli Ankou, LeKevin Smith, and Gary Downing - according to David Lee Platte who created the Relative Athletic Score database.
