Draft Scouting Report

Pro Comparison: Bryce Huff

Summary

Joshua Josephs is a smaller, explosive pass rusher who should immediately provide a jolt to an NFL pass rush. He gives up some ground in run defense and may be more of a situational rusher early in his career.

About

2025: 90.6 PFF pass-rush grade (19th among FBS EDGE)
2025: 3 FF (tied for third-most in SEC)

Strengths

Springy enough to cross linemen’s faces and shoot open gaps.
Long arms help keep blockers out of his chest.
Good quickness to attack gaps with multiple pass-rush moves if his initial rush is stalled.

Weaknesses
