Expert Analysis
Andy Pham | Prep Redzone Scout
Afu will be tasked with creating pressure against a physical West offensive line. Afu is good off the line, plays with good strength and uses his arms to get his lineman off-balanced. If he can advamce his position and stymie the run game, it’ll force West to go in a different direction.

Read EvaluationAndy Pham | Prep Redzone Scout
Afu showcases good acceleration and bursts off the line with good lateral movement to beat his blocker. He has an excellent motor and will chase down a play opposite to where he is lined up. Afu can work as an edge rusher and as an interior defensive lineman. When he grows into his frame, he’ll be a versatile piece and a menace wherever he lines up. Afu utilizes leverage well and his first step gives him an edge to get the Offensive Lineman out of position. He does a good job holding the edge and shedding his man to make a play. Afu is a young prospect with a bright future and an excellent awareness of making a play.
