With the 30th pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, Todd McShay has the Carolina Panthers selecting Emmanuel Ogbah, defensive end out of Oklahoma State.

McShay reasons that the Panthers need help at the defensive end and cornerback positions most this offseason, which is accurate. However, with top talent at the defensive end position early on in the draft, he goes with the hot and cold Ogbah.

The Panthers will be in the market for more depth at cornerback, so you’d have to think William Jackson III and Kendall Fuller would be in the mix here too. And while Ogbah had a terrific combine, his motor runs hot and cold on tape, which is a concern. When he decides to cut loose as a pass-rusher, he has an outstanding combination of length, quickness and power.

Ogbah did have a great combine this past weekend. He ran a 4.63 40-yard dash time, which is good for second place out of all the defensive linemen. He was a little short on his bench press, doing only 20 reps. However, he showed great explosion in the vertical jump and broad jump, going for 35.5 inches and 121 inches respectively. Those numbers put him at second place in the vertical jump and third place for the broad jump.

Ogbah is still a raw prospect that will need some time to mature into an every down defensive end, if he ever gets that far. As a pass rusher exclusively, he’ll be able to step in immediately and make an impact. For Oklahoma State in 2015, Ogbah managed 12.5 sacks and 63 tackles, including 16.5 tackles for a loss.

The Draft Wire’s Jon Ledyard questions Ogbah’s effort at times in his scouting report and it is hard to argue there. At times, he seems to jog things out when he won’t be able to get a recorded sack, instead of hustling in order to get pressure and help his team. A tough head coach and a veteran locker room is what will be needed there to help fix that issue and ultimately propel him to fulfill his potential.

That so happens to fit with what the Panthers have, making the two a good fit for each other.
