Strengths

Verse excels with an explosive first step and plays with a relentless motor from snap to whistle. This combination allows him to quickly stress offensive tackles vertically and consistently apply pressure on the quarterback, using his athletic tools to wear down linemen and get home. 

With his diverse range of pass-rush techniques, including powerful bull rushes, finesse moves, and effective speed-to-power transitions, Jared Verse has a versatile pass-rushing skill set. He is technically savvy with his hand placement, swipe throughs, and footwork.

Weaknesses

One thing scouts may point to as a negative is Verse’s physical limitations. Although his height and weight are comparable to some of the top edge rushers, Verse lacks the ideal length and mass. This could result him struggling to shred blocks and maintain position.
