Expert Analysis
Ed OBrien | Prep Redzone Scout
The most dominant defensive player in the game was Scheffers. It was one of the best efforts that I’ve seen from a linebacker all season. There was no stopping him from wreaking havoc in the backfield. Scheffers came off the edge and chased down a good number of plays from behind the line of scrimmage. Scheffers even tipped a pass in coverage. To top it all off, he also caught.a touchdown pass. I think he has a strong case for a rankings bump at the end of the season. Scheffers was a one-man wrecking crew.

is a classic downhill middle linebacker who excels in the box. His physicality, discipline, and technique make him a reliable run-stopper. Scheffers’ highlights show him consistently filing run lanes and making tackles near the line of scrimmage. He also shows excellent instincts when diagnosing inside runs and often meets the runner in the gap. Scheffers is also physical at the point of attack, frequently engaging and shedding blockers quickly. He’s a fundamentally sound tackler who wraps up, stays low, and finishes through contact. Scheffers takes disciplined pursuit angles, which minimize cutback opportunities. His hustle and motor skills are also strengths. Scheffers is the type of player who sets the tone defensively with physical play and effort. There’s a limited sample size of him in pass coverage, so that’s something he’ll have to be able to show should he go to any prospect camps.
