Draft Profile: Bio
Arvell Reese from Glenville High School was rated a 4-star recruit by ESPN and handed a 4-star grade by 247 Sports. After high school, Reese joined Ohio State after being heavily recruited.In 2024 as a freshman Reese saw action in just 3 games and played a total of 81 snaps at linebacker for the Buckeyes. He recorded only 6 tackles, 3 assists, while adding 7 stops.
Scouting Report: Strengths
- Reese disrupts plays in the backfield regularly. He also has the agility and pure speed to cover sideline to sideline, moving like a safety and then finishing as a violent and consistent tackler.
- Accelerates rapidly and has a great feel for angles. He isn’t huge, but Reese packs a pop.
- A dynamic edge rusher, Carraway has NFL-caliber quickness and speed. He gets off the snap quickly and has the flexibility to bend the edge and the pure speed to close on the quarterback.
- He’s excellent changing direction, an agile mover who can win by countering inside and exploding with impressive burst when closing.
- He possesses an intriguing blend of size and movement skills. Reese has good length, wide shoulders, and long arms, and he has room to add weight.
- Good closing speed with long arms to drag down quarterbacks and running backs.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- While Reese moves well laterally, he doesn’t always get there in pursuit.
- Possesses average instincts. More likely to make plays with quick reactions than by diagnosing.
- As a run defender, he’s too much of a grab-and-drag tackler, lacking violence and too frequently allowing running backs to escape.
