Elijah Rushing is a long, violent front-seven chess piece with real upside
Rushing remains more projection than production in 2026, with Oregon sources noting just three tackles through his first two seasons and a bigger role still taking shape. At 6-foot-6 and around 275-290 pounds, he brings rare length, power, and versatility, and scouts praised his athleticism, bend, hand use, and ability to create chaos against both the run and pass. He looks like a fit for teams that value disruptive traits, position flexibility, and patience over instant box-score fireworks.
