Amani "Moose" Bledose is arguably the most talented player in the Sooners class. You just don't see guys at his size move as effortlessly as Bledsoe moves. He has a massive frame (6-5/270) and yet moves like a guy who weighs 30-40 pounds less than him. Bledsoe is the ideal fit for defensive end in the Sooners 3-4 defense and after a redshirt year, I see him being a nightmare for offensive lineman in the Big 12.

Had Bledose been from the state of Florida or Alabama, it wouldn't shock me to see him with a 5-star ranking. He is that good.
