I noticed when we were in shotgun formation Jefferson would throw his arm down to signal for the snap. It seems like the defense should be able to key on that pretty easily and get a lot of good jumps on our o-line. Am I worrying about nothing here or is this a legitimate concern?

Everything is a concern here at tigerdroppings. We will probably lose 3 games alone just because of the issue you pointed out. Combine that with the other 3 we will lose because our DC sucks. And the other 3 we will lose because Chad Jones sucks. And the 1 we will lose because of our D-line and 1 because of our o-line....Oh shite, we aren't going to win another football game this year..

No more of a legitimate concern than running up and down the line screaming out what the play has been changed to.

I wasn't implying that we were going to lose games because of this. I'm actually one of the ones who isn't that worried about what happened during the game. This was just something I noticed. I thought most teams had their QB raise their leg which could also signal the WR for motion. I stand corrected though.
