PHYSICAL PROFILE

  • Height: 5’11
  • Weight: 220
  • Body Type / Frame: Solid frame
  • Athletic Profile: 4.54 verified 40yd dash, shows good burst and coordination as well

PLAYER SUMMARY

Great instincts and patience, paired with good top-end speed and really solid acceleration. Ability isn’t questioned; the level of competition certainly can be. I think he’s best suited as a D1 FCS or high D2 player to begin with and gradually work his way up; he could very well be a developmental low-FBS player from the start. 

TRAIT EVALUATION

Movement Skills
Top end speed is solid, but the acceleration is even better. Displays some high-level moves in the open field and looks to be a fluid runner.

Physicality
Displays good enough contact balance and strength. Able to break through a lot of arm tackles and isn’t afraid of contact.

Football Intelligence
Shows pretty good instincts and vision. Very patient runner letting his blockers get out ahead of the play for him. If he sees a gap open he’s hitting it with every bit of his speed.

STRENGTHS

  • Sees the field very well always looking a bit ahead of the defense
  • Has the speed to outrun almost everyone he plays against, but also the contact balance to sustain hits and keep going
  • VERY patient runner, lets all the blocks set up downfield and then explodes through the gap
  • From what I can see, looks to also be a good receiving back

AREAS FOR DEVELOPMENT

  • Not really sure I can knock the competition level, but it is REALLY REALLY bad. Would like to see him at a larger school
  • Wonder how translatable the production is out of the formation that Tri HS runs, it’s a variation of the Wing-T.
  • Looks to be a rather grabby blocker

INTANGIBLES

  • Motor / Effort Level: High Level Motor, effort undoubtedly high too
  • Competitiveness: A high-level competitor that doesn’t give up on plays even with several players between him and the end zone

OVERALL EVALUATION

Summary Statement:
Developmental Running back at the FCS/ D2/D3 level with strong instincts and great patience. Long-term starter upside at the lower FBS level.
