Jabril McNeill, nation’s No. 13 outside linebacker, commits to Oregon The Oregon Ducks football program has assembled the nation’s No. 3 recruiting class The Ducks added to that impressive haul Monday, as 247Sports four-star outside linebacker Jabril McNeill announced his commitment to Oregon over North Carolina State, as well as offers from Arkansas, Auburn, Kentucky, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Virginia Tech, Washington and West Virginia. 6-foot-4, 225-pound 'backer, out of Raleigh, North Carolina 247Sports national writer Charles Power projects McNeill as a future NFL player: “Tall defender with a big frame. Has long arms and should easily add weight at the next level. Has tested as a good athlete in multiple settings over the last year. Enjoyed a breakout junior season with a productive year from his linebacker spot. Is a high volume tackler and uses his length and athleticism to corral the ball carrier. Shows a physical edge and embraces contact in take-on situations. Tracks plays sideline to sideline and shows impressive range. Has good play strength and drives through his tackles. Also plays some as a tight end on offense. Is still a little raw from a recognition and instinctual standpoint in addition to finishing plays behind the line of scrimmage. Should continue improving at a steady clip and is young for the class. Could eventually grow into an edge defender. Projects as a multi-year starter at the Power Five level with a considerable ceiling that could result in an early round NFL Draft selection.”
