Efe Obada

What a great story Efe Obada is. Obada is the first player to make an NFL roster via the International Pathway Program and he looks to make the most of his opportunity. Already having been a part of three different teams, he will finally have his shot to make an impact in the league.

I am surprised he made the roster just because of the fact he has been flying under the radar for most of his career. Playing defensive end, the Carolina Panthers already are stacked at the position. With that in mind, he makes a nice depth piece for the team moving forward. Especially for a team that wants to be aggressive and physical on defense, he may fit what they are looking for.

He has shown he has the talent to make it in the league, or at the very least stick around. Now, he will have the chance to prove himself with the Carolina Panthers. Given his backstory, he has proved a lot already.
