Jeffery Rush

Unverified at 6-foot-3 and 250-pounds, appears to possess growth potential to add additional weight to his frame and potentially move inside at the next level. Displays good athleticism off the edge in an odd front, plus shows the ability to play in a two or three point stance.

Exhibits good knee bend and hip flexibility off the edge. Displays good short area burst and explosiveness in his first step off the line of scrimmage. Plays with very good foot and body quickness for his size. Sudden mover that plays with very little wasted motion. Can win with speed, quickness or power in his pass rush.. Plays with good play strength and leverage, plus shows the ability to hold the point of attack and seal the edge. Flashes good speed to power ability and demonstrates the ability to move defenders naturally off the line of scrimmage. Good athlete that can change direction and redirect quickly in space. Active backside pursuit defender that also makes a lot of high motor effort plays as a pass rusher.

Projects as a high level multi-year starter on Saturdays with the ability to potentially develop into an all-conference prospect. Position projection will be scheme dependent but can see him moving inside with a combination of pass rushing upside and activity playing the run. Could come in a little shorter than estimated size but has shown the athletic ability and position versatility to kick inside and overcompensate at the next level.
