1. Notre Dame is getting a defensive end with a high motor and incredibly high ceiling. In viewing his sophomore film, Gobaira looks raw but has all of the traits you’re looking for in a big-time edge player. The size and length looks superb, looks fairly athletic and has a lot of room to grow into his lanky frame. Gobaira shows a great burst off the edge and gets to the quarterback without flashy pass rush moves. He doesn’t seem to have bad habits yet – only upside. Virginia didn’t have a football season in 2020 but is this spring, so we should see an improved version of Gobaira this spring.
