Ourlads' Profile:

2021 Guide: What Ourlads' NFL Scouting Services said about TOMMY TOGIAI: Ohio State, 6020 300 5.01. Junior entry, one-year starter, Pocatello, ID. Earned second-team All Big 10 honors in 2020. An athletic penetrator who can get off the ball well, but mostly excels with his post-engagement movement. Has twitchy, strong hands and can adjust his weight on demand to avoid getting locked onto. His switch is always on and will make an impact far away from the point of attack. Struggles to maintain his position against the run, notably when multiple blockers get their hands on him. Projects to be a rotational pass rusher that will bring energy to a front. Athletic, fast-footed penetrator that can change his direction in a flash. Twitchy with a top heavy frame. Explosive hands that he knows how to use when it comes to techniques and shedding. Thin, but fast lower half. Can bend back late to miss the blocker’s punch, showing plus-reaction speed. Will take advantage of an over-aggressive off-balanced blocker. Hungry, aggressive, and tough mental traits that show up weekly. Will maneuver through traffic well. Passionate, high motor playing style will make up for some of his physical shortcomings. Lacks a true and dependable base to anchor his position. Pad level is inconsistent. 2020 stats: 23 T, 4.5 TFL, 3 sacks, 2 PBU, 1 FF. Fourth/fifth round. (A-31 3/4, H-8 7/8, BP-40, 10-1.78).
