Jayden Peevy NFL Draft Profile
|
Jayden Peevy Scouting ReportJayden delivers a strong punch from an explosive first step. He uses his exceptional lower body strength to anchor inside. He can make the impressive chest-to-chest bear hug tackle in the hole due to his ability to wreak havoc in the backfield. He uses his hands to shed blocks to make plays in the hole or outside the box. Jayden's strength gives ends a chance to twist inside and linebackers free lane to the passer on blitzes. He plays with leverage at the point of attack whether inside or outside. Keeps eyes in the backfield when inside; moves linemen to either side with strong hands. He has a tall, solid frame with adequate length and has done a nice job losing the bad weight and firming his body.

Areas for ImprovementPeevy might be limited to one-gap systems. His agility isn't a question but misses tackles when he doesn't square and break down. He lacks the speed to turn the corner consistently and is too often washed out by stronghanded blockers. He must improve hand use and read-and-react skills. Lacks the violent hands to shed and can be eliminated by double-team blocks. Peevy has average athletically with average straight line speed and tight hips. Not a natural bender. Lacks secondary pass-rush moves. His quick first step with fluid movements off the ball. Highly competitive and fierce, showing relentless effort to the pocket with a nonstop motor
