About Jalen
Expert Analysis
Matt DeBary | Prep Redzone Scout
A big edge defender on the rise in the small town of Dublin, Dardy is a physical 6 foot 4, 240 pound defender who wreaked havoc in the backfield last season. He plays the run well, plays with good leverage, and knows how to attack the ball carrier in the backfield. He plays hard, has a lot of potential, and is coming off a productive junior season where he made 33 tackles, 12 tackles behind the line of scrimmage and 4 sacks. His best football is to way ahead of him, and he should see a significant bump in the next 2027 red zone rankings. He holds several respectable D1-offers, but more Power Four offers could some his way down the road.
