Alshon Jeffery, WR, South Carolina
Height: 6’4″
Weight: 235
Grade: 7.1U (Grading Scale)
Film Room Notes: vs Vanderbilt, vs Tennessee
Strengths: Phenomenal size and length – Accelerates to top-speed quickly, but will be hard pressed to run under a 4.5 – Uses strength and quickness to beat the press – Makes some incredible catches, unreal hands – Adept at bringing hands up late and making the catch – Uses his body very well to box out defenders – Very tough to bring down after the catch – Very productive in 2010 – Incredibly high ceiling.
Weaknesses: Lacks a 2nd gear – Loses speed out of his breaks, doesn’t always gain true separation from college corners – Could sharpen up his routes – Makes some drops when fighting for extra yards before making the catch – Legitimate effort concerns arose after horrendous QB situation junior year – Should block much better with his size, inconsistent with his effort – Some off-season conditioning commitment concerns.
