Ourlads' Profile:
2021 Guide: What Ourlads' NFL Scouting Services said about CARLOS BASHAM JR.: Wake Forest, 6033 281 4.62. Four-year starter, Roanoke, VA. Entered the lineup toward the ends of his freshman season and never looked back. First-team All ACC in 2019, third-team in 2020. He saw a dip in week-to-week production in his final season but still accrued 36.5 tackles for loss and 20.5 sacks over his accomplished career. Has the ideal body for an inside-outside versatile lineman that can change his style at the snap of a finger. His power and hand striking are both elite. At the very least, the defense can rely on him to control one or two gaps against the run. He has the ability to reach the passer from any and all angles. His upfield burst won’t win a lot of battles up the edge but once engaged with a blocker one on one he will make an impact. He is a dirty-work lineman that will make players around him better. Violent puncher that looks for a fight at the point of attack. Easy bend combined with a powerful, wide base. Can move in and out of the tackle box and take advantage of matchups. Surprising build up speed in space and will pursue the action hard. Makes a lot of plays away from his starting position. Puts as much into the running game as he does the pass rush. Well developed skill set, pro-ready hand work. Shows a good forward lean and can win the lockout game routinely. Doesn’t feel the double team coming. Needs to anchor himself better with blockers coming down on him from the outside. 2020 stats: 28 T, 5.5 TFL, 5 sacks, 1 PBU, 2 QBH, 1 FF. Second/ third round. (A-32 1/2, H-9 1/8, BP-20, 10-1.63).
