H.S. Scouting Report
Evaluated 09/21/2018
Projection
UFAPrototypical build for a college-level back in the 5-foot-11, 200-pound range as a high school senior. Somewhat limited frame but can probably get to 220 pounds in college. Highly productive against terrific competition relative to the high school level. Proven high-volume, workhorse back. Deceptively builds long speed and can get rolling downhill in the secondary. Strong runner with good balance and body control. Can gain yards after contact. Good between the tackles. Patient runner who presses blocks to set up cutbacks in the toss and the stretch. Sells the counter and delayed handoffs with subtlety and nuance. Enters college with a lot of mileage on the tires (673 varsity carries). Virtually non-existent pass-catching experience out of the backfield. Has not been asked to do much blitz pickup in a run-heavy scheme. Can make the first defender miss in the hole, but runs a bit stiff and does not flash much open-field wiggle. Adequate initial burst but needs to improve overall quick-twitch explosion. Potential to develop into an NFL draft choice.
