Green will join one of the NFL’s best pass rushes after falling in the draft due to sexual assault allegations, which he has denied. Originally a three-star prospect who was enrolled at Virginia for his first two collegiate seasons, Green (6’3/248) transferred to Marshall in 2023 after logging just 38 snaps at UVA. His ability to slip blocks and cause disruption in the run game stood out in his first Sun Belt campaign, earning a superb 90.2 run defense grade with 26 stops in 2023. It all came together for him last year, leading the nation with 17 sacks while accruing 59 pressures and was one of just eight players in the nation with a pass rush win rate above 20%. He backed up the prodigious numbers he posted in Sun Belt play by dominating the Senior Bowl practices against a cast of highly regarded Power Four blockers. His pro day workout featured an incredible 6.85s 3-cone drill (95th%) and a 4.25s short shuttle to go with 28 bench reps (91st%). Green wins on the edge with speed and unnatural agility that helps him elude the grasp of blockers and forge an unimpeded path to the quarterback. He employs a series of well-honed pass rush maneuvers to free himself up, and is strong enough to power through blockers who overset to compensate for Green’s athleticism.
