Jarvis Jenkins, Washington Redskins, 41st Pick, 2nd Round, 2011 NFL Draft


Jenkins, Jarvis Clemson 6037 309 5.08
Three-year starter. Active in his play. Try hard, good effort
player who will finish pursuit to the perimeter. Quick first step.
Gets his hands up and into the throwing lane. Physical against
the run when he gets his pad level down. Has a tendency to play
high. Works his feet and hands to press the pocket and rush the
quarterback. Plays in a front rotation where he is always fresh.
Doesn’t stay blocked. Quick to disengage and separate from the
blocker. Can stack and hold his ground against double teams.
Needs to develop his pass rush moves. Basically uses the bull
rush and tries to overpower the blocker. That rarely happens on
the next level. A reactive player who has a nose for the ball. Has
functional strength but needs more upper and lower body strength.
Possibly a two gap 3-4 defensive end. For complete report see Ourlads Guide to the NFL Draft.
