Tobi Osunsanmi

Tobi Osunsanmi is a 6-foot-3, 250-pound edge rusher from Wichita, Kansas, who enters the 2027 draft cycle as one of the more intriguing developmental pass rushers in a class loaded with raw athleticism. Originally recruited to Kansas State as a three-star linebacker out of Wichita High School East in the Class of 2022, Osunsanmi preserved his redshirt as a true freshman and played in a reserve linebacker and special teams role throughout 2023 before formally converting to defensive end toward the end of that season.

Film evaluators awarded him a strong grade with top marks for disruption and motor, and ranked him among the best edges in the transfer cycle. He grades as a developmental Day 3 profile, and big boards punt him to the 2027 class with positive long-term trajectory. His projection entering Indiana under Curt Cignetti is to fill the void left by graduated edge contributors, with the Hoosiers treating him as a major portal priority. The concerns center on a still-developing pass rush repertoire beyond the bull rush, footwork inconsistency in the run game noted by his o
