As a College Recruit
Powerful, highly active edge defender who is among the more productive prospects in the 2022 cycle. Has explosive power in his hands, rocking opposing linemen back on contact. Able to occupy and shed offensive linemen to make plays behind the line of scrimmage. Plays with a high effort level on a snap to snap basis and shines against top competition. Highly instinctive and communicative, working to align his teammates pre-snap. Best as a speed to power pass rusher at this stage. Has helped his team to two state titles as a sophomore and junior. On pace to finish his high school career with over 400 tackles and 100 tackles for loss. Smaller than other top EDGE prospects but has some compensatory strength. Could also possibly play as an off-ball linebacker at the next level.
Reminds Us Of
Like Brandon Graham, Jeremiah Alexander is a highly productive and accomplished high school player who checks in at under 6-foot-2 and around 235 pounds. Alexander excels as a power player with his strong hands and ability to anchor and overpower bigger offensive linemen. Should Alexander hit his ceiling, he’s most likely to do so as a player with a similar style as Graham. We’ve also heard Alexander compared to former Alabama defensive end Courtney Upshaw.
