Deji Ajose

Ajose is an intriguing player with the ability to play multiple positions at the next level. He was very productive at receiver, explosive in the return game but his upside is probably highest on the defensive said of the ball. He played linebacker in a part time roll but really flashed, showing a burst off the edge and some physicality in his game. Safety could be his ultimate meal ticket and we really like his size, athleticism and toughness. He runs well and has the track background we love in a skill player. Clocked a 10.9-100m as a freshman but dealt with a hip injury that hindered his sophomore track season. As a receiver, he can continue to improve as a pass catcher, being mare natural with his hands but the burst and ability to run after the catch are plus tools for him. He can stretch the field and is a playmaker with the ball in his hands. Frame wise and from a positional versatility standpoint, he reminds us a little of former O’Dowd two-way standout Jevon Holland. He’s definitely a trend up guy in our eyes and someone to watch closely this off-season.
