ESN PLAYER EVALUATION/NOTES
2017 ALL-USA Today California Football Team. Joshua is one of the most sought after defensive prospects in the 2019 recruiting class. He has amazing size and athletic ability for his position. He can overpower blockers off the edge and has the closing speed and range to cut off the outside. He is an elite pass rusher and has the length to affect the QB passing lanes and get deflections. He is an aggressive tackler that makes some big highlight reel hits. He could transition into a D-End at the next level. He is a special talent. High Power 5 and national recruit.
