Draft Scouting Report

Pro Comparison: Dwight Freeney
Summary

Rueben Bain Jr. is an explosive, violent edge rusher with rare power and bend, capable of turning the corner from wide alignments and overwhelming tackles with speed to power. He wins with a deep arsenal of pass-rush moves -- from bull rushes to inside counters -- and plays with exceptional contact balance and hand usage to shed blocks as both a rusher and run defender. Relentlessly disruptive and highly explosive off the snap, Bain consistently collapses pockets, sets a firm edge and makes impact plays from whistle to whistle.

About
  • 2025: Led Power 4 EDGEs with 75 QB hurries (next highest was 51), per Underdog Fantasy
  • 2025: Led FBS with 83 QB pressures
Strengths
  • Exceptional physical traits for an edge player, blending twitch, power and a relentless motor.
  • Leader and tone-setter for a program built in the trenches.
  • Plays with strong instincts in the run game and uses heavy hands to shock, shed and generate knockback power; also shows excellent lateral quickness.
  • Quick get-off with an impressive speed-to-power combination; bends well at the top of his rush and finishes at the quarterback.
Weaknesses
  • Occasionally undisciplined maintaining primary gap and pass-rush integrity.
  • Adequate length, but wingspan lacks ideal NFL measurements.
  • Needs to further develop counters at the next level against higher-end competition.
