Scouting Report: Strengths
- As a pass rusher, Eboigbe shows quickness off the line and has the fluid athleticism and flexibility to bend the edge.
- Tall, solid frame with adequate length and has done a nice job losing the bad weight and firming his body.
- Quick first step with fluid movements off the ball. Highly competitive and fierce, showing relentless effort to the pocket with a nonstop motor
- Can make the impressive chest-to-chest bear hug tackle in the hole due to his ability to wreak havoc in the backfield.
- Possesses the length and power to ward off offensive tackles.
- Despite his relatively tall frame, he typically plays with a low enough pad level and natural power to push the pocket with the bull rush.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Eboigbe lacks the speed and range to consistently chase down plays in pursuit.
- Only average lower-body strength and struggles to anchor at the point of attack. Bit of a defensive end/defensive tackle "tweener" who struggles in traffic with multiple blockers, not always using his limbs effectively to disengage.
- Stands up well against the run but is very pursuit-conscious and will take unneeded wide angles.
