According to ESPN’s Tom VanHaaren:

"Rashan has a lot of good qualities on and off the field.

You look at what he can do on the field and he is a very versatile defensive lineman.

He can fit any scheme, he can play defensive end or slide inside and play tackle, he can help against the run or rush the passer.

What doesn’t show up on a scouting report, though, is a big part of it as well.

At the Under Armour All America game, Rashan was a vocal leader for his team, pushing his teammates to get more out of them.

He lead by example out there and was the best player among the elite prospects in his class.

A lot of times with highly ranked prospects, the reason that they don’t pan out in college has nothing to do with talent.

How the adjust to being on their own, academics, working out on their own, staying out of trouble, the off field stuff can be where the busts come into play.

When you look at Rashan there aren’t any red flags that suggest that will be an issue with him.

His biggest red flag, according to his mom, is that he doesn’t keep his room as clean as she would like him to.

You combine his talent with his work ethic and character and you have an elite prospect who has some big things ahead of him.”
