Scouting Notes
Aiden Gobaira is a former 4-star (top-170) edge who landed at James Madison and produced: 4 sacks, 38 tackles in 2025, now projected to start at edge (RE1) for UCLA. The combination of recruiting pedigree, real production, a starting role, and a premium position makes him one of the better bets in this front — priority-UDFA. The level (G5) and modest sack total keep it from climbing higher.
