Scouting Report: Strengths
- He’s flexible enough to bend the edge, and he’s at his best when Jeffcoat can use his quickness and change-of-direction abilities to counter back inside.
- Jeffcoat locates the ball quickly, and he shows good instincts when dropping into zone coverage.
- He can move laterally and chase in pursuit. A tough, violent tackler with a non-stop motor, he also shows good awareness when dropping into coverage.
- Jeffcoat has long arms and displays good power in his hands, which gives him the ability to slip off blocks. As a run defender, he has the speed to chase down ball carriers in pursuit.
- Possesses accurate snap anticipation and timing to beat blockers off the edge.
- As a pass rusher, he shows quickness off the line and has the fluid athleticism and flexibility to bend the edge.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Never out of a play, but can get out of control and work himself away from the action.
- Not a natural bender and lacks fluid change-of-direction ability. Plays with inconsistent pad level and is often knocked backward off the snap.
- Is still a bit raw as a pass rusher and needs to diversify his repertoire of pass-rush moves.
