‘s elite MVP performance is and was the fact that he was a relative unknown coming into the event. Excited to show off his new ranking in time. I wanted to take the time to talk about his performance and skill set. A kid with the ideal frame for a high-ceiling EDGE/DL prospect, especially considering his age. Narrow waist, wide shoulders, with a ratio that could grow in years time. Very loose hips, helps him explode off the snap and maintain speed after dealing with initial contact. Flexible ankles. Great stance pre-snap throughout 1v1s. Chest over toes, weight on the balls of his feet, Jackson was often too quick for tackles in attendance to combat. No heel popping, covers ground quickly. A ton of great things to watch in person. I want to learn more about Jackson’s counter ability. It’s great to see him use speed to dominate tackles in a setting like this one, yet I want to see what Jackson is like when his initial plan doesn’t work. Excited to see him work in the Fall.

left the event with momentum that should translate into rankings traction. I’d argue that no player at the entire event better helped themselves than Cardinal O’Hara’s

. Currently on our watch list. Will elevate highly, will likely rank past several talented 2028 DL/EDGE players. I have a feeling he’ll likely crack the Top 100, this at the very least. No unranked prospect that attended our event will debut higher than DL MVP

. He was one of the few dlineman on site that was consistently winning his 1vs1 reps. He has a low center or gravity off the snap, making him a tough assignment for any tackle to block. The offensive tackles we had last week were some of the best I have seen in recent memory and Jackson held up quite well. Good testing numbers too particularly in his broad jump which he cleared over 8 feet on both attempts. Jackson is ascending at the right time, l would imagine he will come off the 2028 Watch List and be ranked soon.
