Scouting Report

July 29, 2026

Joseph Adedire #13

NC State · EDGE · Gr · 2027 Draft · Arlington, TX · Mansfield Summit

6-3 · 260 lbs

4.4

UDFA

Floor 4.1 · Ceiling 4.7

#2722 overall · #277 EDGE of 15102

Scouting Verdict

Experienced grad DE (Texas Tech) projected to start — modest career production (~50 tackles, 3 sacks) but a known, rotation-ready body for a thin line. A functional ACC starter, not a draft name.

Ceiling · 4.7

Projected 2026 starter (DL1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.3) · up-year team · ACC draft-temper.

Floor · 4.1

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.3.
