The Jets signed Okorafor on Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Scouting Report
He brings a lot of potential as a pass protector for the pro game, and is also high-upside as a run blocker. A towering, hulking presence up front. Brings ideal muscular bulk. His excellent wingspan is a major asset in one-on-one battles. He can get a better grip than some O-linmen thanks to big hands. Lacks ideal strength and muscle to battle in the trenches at the pro level, and would benefit hugely by adding more muscle mass to his frame.
Long Range Potential: Talented offensive lineman with starter tools.
