Enagbare has a tremendous knack and willingness to get to the quarterback and shows great instincts for a player his size. Also has an intriguing skill set that incorporates length, speed, and power to round out his player profile. Enagbare has <a href=\"https:\/\/thedraftnetwork.com\/player\/kingsley-enagbare\/KJBvUU4o1l\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">experience<\/a> in different defensive fronts and even as an outside linebacker. These aspects show his versatility which will help his draft stock when being evaluated.

Will most likely be projected as an EDGE for most teams but may also be used in some base looks as evident at South Carolina. His first-step quickness is very impressive and his true calling card that will translate most notably at the next level. Enagbare does have some room for improvement when it comes to football savvy and IQ when processing and recognizing plays. Considering this, he has shown the ability to be teachable and should fit in amicably with NFL coaches. We currently have Enagbare as a 4th round player with the opportunity to be taken at the end of the 3rd in the 2022 NFL draft. The team that takes him could get a lethal pass rusher as his technique is refined and playing time increased to then potentially blossom into something special.<\/p>\n<p><strong>*Stats and research courtesy of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NFL.com<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thedraftnetwork.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Draft Network<\/a>\u00a0(TDN).\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Main Photo:<br \/>\n<a id=\"OnInRhmcRypYj5jIKhuc2g\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1391671546\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'OnInRhmcRypYj5jIKhuc2g',sig:'rHRF-c31B1RhO9KQx4LoR3qmH4UdumaQajnNa7-cmnM=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1391671546',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kingsley Enagbare was a force along the South Carolina defensive line despite only playing in 12 games in 2021. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3872,"featured_media":133265,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","sfio_featured_image":false,"sfio_embed_code":"","_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1647],"tags":[8755,9137],"class_list":["post-133129","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl-draft","tag-2022-nfl-draft","tag-kingsley-enagbare"],"modified_by":"Will Koshover, Editor","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/133129","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3872"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=133129"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/133129\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/133265"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=133129"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=133129"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=133129"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
