Adisa Isaac

Chop Robinson is the marquee pass rusher from Penn State, but don't overlook Adisa Isaac. He led the Nittany Lions in sacks (9) and total pressures last season. Isaac is a lightweight at 247 pounds (9th percentile) which is the only glaring issue body-wise. He's athletic with speed and was super-efficient as a pass rusher in 2023.
Per Sports Info Solutions, Isaac ranked 6th in pressure rate above expectation, second in quick pressure rate and third in adjusted tackle depth plus - which compares actual tackle depth to the expected tackle depth based on personnel.

Baltimore Ravens rookie edge rusher Adisa Isaac will miss his team's season opener with a hamstring injury.

Fantasy Impact

The rookie out of Penn State logged DNPs in all three practices this week, making this the expected outcome. While he was often overshadowed in college publicly by his running mate Chop Robinson (21st overall to Miami), Isaac was plenty productive in college himself (7.5 sacks, 16 TFLs as a senior) and was drafted accordingly (No. 93). He will have to wait to make his NFL debut on a defensive line that lost talent this offseason.
