I am so impressed every time I turn on Jeremiah’s tape.
A couple of years ago, Jeremiah showcased his athletic ability at one of our Prep Redzone camps. At that time, he was an offensive lineman, and honestly, I didn’t see amazing upside there.
Soon after, Jeremiah started repping more and more on the defensive line. He kept at it in the weight room without sacrificing that athletic ability. Now, he’s a Power 4 commit.
Excuse me for not being as specific as the other evals with Jeremiah’s tape. Throughout Jeremiah’s (week 1-2, not 1-4) tape, he showcases high-end explosiveness, great quickness, and effort. A game-wrecker that offensive play callers need to game-plan against.

#86 –> #43
Strengths
- Explosive
- Great play speed
- Solid hand fighting
- Good tackling
- Athletic
Weaknesses
- Few true block sheds on tape
- Questionable pass rush against solid offensive linemen
I need to watch Jeremiah again in person to determine a more accurate evaluation. I watched him twice in person when he just played O-Line, and he was pretty good. Had the mentality, was physical, decent footwork, but size would have limited him. Now, seems like he’s bulked up quite a bit and worked to be a DT. This massive and relatively quick shift has fueled his big rankings rise. I rarely see propsects transform themselves as quickly as Jeremiah did!

DL MVP of the camp, Jeremiah balled out! He gets off with great quickness, packs a huge punch and keeps active hands. I took notice with his great size right off the bat, and as soon as we started testing, I loved the way he moved. His L drill and broad jump showed that he was an explosive athlete with good technique. I was surprised to see him signed up as a defensive lineman, but honestly with his motor and raw strength and good build, it seems like a great spot for him. I will be watching his development over the off-season for sure!
