Collin Tillman7
Physical Profile
Tillman brings a 6’1”, 191-pound frame with a balanced build that still has room for additional lower-body and overall strength development. He carries solid upper-body structure while maintaining a leaner lower half, giving him a frame that projects well for continued physical growth. His athletic profile is highlighted by natural running ability, functional acceleration, and enough open-field speed to stress defenses when plays extend beyond structure.
Player Summary
Tillman is a dual threat quarterback operating in a pass oriented system that allows him to consistently showcase his accuracy at the intermediate and vertical levels. He plays with a quick release and efficient decision making, enabling receivers to generate yards after the catch. His ability to extend plays outside the pocket while still delivering accurate throws adds to his overall value as a developing quarterback prospect with both structure and improvisational ability.
Trait Evaluation
Movement Skills
Tillman is a natural runner with strong acceleration and the ability to create explosive plays when space opens. He shows quick feet, clean change of direction, and the ability to accelerate past defenders once he reaches the second level. His movement is efficient rather than overly complex, and he consistently avoids unnecessary negative plays by understanding when to escape or reset within the pocket.
Physicality
Tillman shows functional toughness as a runner and is willing to lower his shoulder to finish runs when necessary. While not a power runner, he does not shy away from contact and generally makes smart decisions about when to absorb hits versus when to slide or step out of bounds. His frame still has room to develop, which should help improve overall durability and play strength.
Football Intelligence
One of Tillman’s stronger traits is his football IQ. He demonstrates above average processing speed for a high school quarterback and consistently makes disciplined decisions with the football. He avoids risky throws into danger, works efficiently through concepts, and shows the ability to step up in the pocket while keeping his eyes downfield. His decision making is generally sound, with continued growth expected as his experience increases.
