NFL scouting report

Overview

Agim is a work in progress with only one season as a full-time defensive tackle after playing defensive end previously. While his technique and fundamentals are still in a developmental stage as an interior defender, elements like hand placement and ball awareness are expected at defensive end, so it is a little disappointing they are behind. He has snap quickness to become a better one-gap penetrator and rush talent to build upon if he can attack with a better plan and more urgency. He's not strong enough to withstand NFL power at the point of attack so development of strength and technique will be critical if he is to become a rotational 4-3 defensive tackle.
Strengths
  • Has experience as base end and defensive tackle
  • Girthy lower half
  • Whipped what was in front of him at the East-West Shrine Bowl practices
  • Makes plays on the other side of the line and forces fumbles
  • Comes off ball with good pad level
  • Lateral agility to soak up tackles near his gap
  • Has spin counter to separate from run blocks
  • Edge rusher's awareness of how to beat outside hand
  • Uses slap-rip to burrow into pocket
  • Closing quickness once he has quarterback in his sights
  • Should improve with more technique work as defensive tackle
Weaknesses
  • Play strength needs to increase
  • Waist-bender at the point of attack
  • Hand placement is too wide losing frame control
  • Doesn't feel pressure bearing down from the edge
  • Gets wiped out of gaps by down blocks
  • Loses sight of the football when fighting with blockers
  • Doesn't have technique to stack, extend and shed properly
  • Body control is lacking as a pass rusher
  • Slow getting to rush counters
  • Rush will stall out if he doesn't find an edge quickly

I saw some where that he lead the Arkansas in sacks and tackles for loss in 2019.

The best way I can describe Agim is he is a DAWG!

Great motor, gets to the ball. Explosive, Wide body that eats up space and penetrates well.

Will be a great addition to our rotation from the start... Not quite the same love for him I had for Dre'Mont Jones, but this is a really good pick, IMO.

He is a hard worker, bring your lunch pale to work everyday kind of player... This is the guy that if he was an NBA player he would be down low rebounding, swinging and taking elbows... Scrappy guy.... I want this guy on my team. This is the kind of guy you want lining up on your side of the ball going to war with you on Sunday!

The other thing I wanted to say about Agim... He is a hunter. He finds ball, he goes to it... I had him as a 3 tech DL going into the draft. His explosion off the ball, and his ability to find and hunt down the ball is most impressive to me... Great situation for him here. He can learn and be part of the rotation and continue to develop. I see Agim as a player who will play in the NFL for a long time. How good he will be depends, but I think we will see him in the NFL for a long time. Love his first step off the ball.

Based on everything I've read, he's a project with high upside over time. Not expected to make any impact in the 2020 season.

I think he will be a solid member of the rotation this year and be able to replace Harris after this year. He really was the only good player in the front 7 at Miss. St. It was hard to get noticed that way. He does look to have uncommon speed bursting into backfields.

Meh. Not a bad pick. Throw him in, see what happens. We'll need the depth within a few seasons.

Here is how I see a convo between Fangio and Agim.

Fangio- Spitting in the air... Yo, Agim... Go get the ball.
Agim- Smacks his head against helmet
Fangio- Slaps him on the shoulder pads.
Agim- GRUNTING, GROANING, BARKING.... Hunts down the ball.
