James Gibbs’ physical attributes and performance suggest a player who has developed physically, to go along with his advanced mental development of the game. He’s able to diagnose, disrupt, and destroy plays on the field, and the tape shows it. His instincts and pass-rushing ability are ideal for what college coaches seek. At 6′1″ and about 190 lbs, he has size but still has room to add lower body strength in a college program. His speed and relentless effort (especially in getting into the backfield and making tackles) are impressive.
His increasing sack numbers and higher tackle rate as a senior indicates growth every year, and with every game he adds experience and play making. Gibbs has 18 tackles, a sack, and 3 TFLs in four games. With five offers, he is well positioned to choose a program that will allow him to contribute early while also supporting his academic and personal development.
