A big playmaker in every sense of the word, Jeffery combines a unique blend of size, athleticism and aggressiveness into what could potentially be an elite defender. Has excellent length and is a very good tackler, so he could grow into an elite LB. Either way, he will make a positive impact on a program and could become one of the better players in the class--Burke Hayes

Jeffrey: "I'm very flexible and can run with anybody. I can play any position because of my size and speed. I played linebacker mostly in high school, but I'll be a safety in college.

"I have great hips and I'm just an old-fashioned go get it-type of football player.

"I think the main thing I want to work on is being more aggressive on the field. Other than that I work on my feet and movement everyday. I also lift and do a lot of speed drills."
