TEN

Foskey has the explosiveness and play strength that you want to see in a pass rusher. His explosiveness is shown with his footwork. What is impressive is how quick and clean his first step is. Foskey does a solid job setting the edge and does a great job shooting gaps. He has a good tackling ability and plays with a lot of toughness. He can be a great distributor, especially when forcing fumbles as he did it multiple times in the 2021 season. He has solid awareness and has quick play recognition. Foskey does not have any major durability issues as well.

Weaknessess

He must work on his flexibility as he does not have the best bend or reach. Along with his lateral agility and balance being an issue there are things he needs to work on athletically. Not the most consistent with the way he sheds tackles and must work on his range when in pursuit of making tackles. Foskey is very raw as a pass rusher. He needs to do better with the utilization of his hands, getting leverage, and expanding his pass rushing moves. Not the most versatile position as he fits more of a 3-4 defense then a 4-3 defense, but he has played as a linebacker at times.

As of now I can see Foskey potentially as a 1st round pick if he fixes his weaknesses, but I see him more of a 2nd or 3rd round prospect for the 2023 NFL Draft.

Against The Run:

Foskey does a solid job setting the edge and does a great job shooting gaps. He must do better with shedding tackles on the run and taking better range angles in pursuit if defenders. The way he shoots through games is solid, but not the most consistent. He has a good tackling ability with the way he wraps his arms around players.
