As a former five-star recruit, Peter Woods knew there were massive expectations placed on his shoulders when he arrived at Clemson. That's why he turned to past stars that have been in his shoes to get better, including former Clemson star Christian Wilkins, a former first-round NFL Draft pick. "I leaned on him a lot for guidance," Woods said. "Same year, same phase of college football. So, it was really big, just knowing that I had somebody who has done it before at the same level and he’s doing it at the next level as well. I learned so much from him – the little things. Things that don't always show up on film. Leadership. Work ethic. Hand placement. I feel like I'm a much better player after spending time with him." Woods appeared in 12 games as a freshman, recording 26 total tackles and 2.5 tackles for loss with one forced fumble. But the numbers didn't show the impact he truly had on the game – he recorded an overall PFF grade of 87.6, with a run defense grade of 88.6 and a pass-rushing grade of 75.9.

Edge

Both Peter Woods and Timmy Jernigan are compactly-built attacking defensive linemen who make their hay with first step quickness and pass rush ability. Woods and Jernigan aren't as big or long as their highly-rated peers but were both highly productive as high school players. 

Not enough on film yet to project a level. Add more game film and verified measurables to unlock a full projection.

Blue Chip

The top of the scale — national-caliber talent that every major program pursues, with a clear NFL trajectory.

Elite / Top 100

Compact defensive lineman creates disruption with first-step quickness and speed in pursuit. Smaller than most of his fellow top defensive line prospects at around 6-foot-2, 280 pounds. Highly productive and disruptive while starring for one of the more talented high school teams in the Southeast. Lines up inside and at end for Thompson High.  Has some of the best play speed we’ve seen from a defensive lineman nationally. Runs like a linebacker in pursuit. Makes plays behind the line of scrimmage at a high clip. Elevated his play as a junior and senior. Turned in a pair of highly impressive all-star performances at the Alabama-Mississippi All-Star Game and All-America Bowl. A high energy practice player who has been well coached. Likely projects as a three-technique long-term. Lacks prototypical length and frame for top prospects at the position.
