Jackson had one of the smoothest releases at camp and has really nice touch with the ability to change the trajectory on his ball flight. Jackson could have been a little more consistent taking him out of contention for our 1st and 2nd teams but some of the throws he made and the athleticism he displayed were a level above the rest of the quarterbacks. A really impressive camp from Jackson results in 3rd team selection.rnrnTwitter: u003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/ZymierJackson2u0022u003ehttps://twitter.com/ZymierJackson2u003c/au003ernrnHudl: u003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/profile/16704012/Zymier-Jacksonu0022u003ehttps://www.hudl.com/profile/16704012/Zymier-Jacksonu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63cef16e7f3f0"} /--> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>Running Back</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["212407"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='212407' first='Brennen' last='Pressley'] was really well rounded all camp. He tested well in combine drills and was really consistent through individual drills and 1v1s. The coaches in charge of the RBs pointed out Pressley as being very well rounded and showing consistency as an athlete, pass catcher, and in blocking. In the reps I saw Pressley just has an incredible feel for the game. His instincts and athleticism pass the eye test of a guy who belongs at the next level. Pressley had a great camp and earns a spot on our third team.rnrnTwitter: u003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/BrennenPressleyu0022u003ehttps://twitter.com/BrennenPressleyu003c/au003ernrnHudl: u003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/profile/17025159/Brennen-Pressleyu0022u003ehttps://www.hudl.com/profile/17025159/Brennen-Pressleyu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63cef16e7f459"} /--> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>Wide Reciever</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["606257"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='606257' first='Darison' last='Hooper'] was one of the smoothest athletes I saw throughout the camp.

Leonard did a really good job trusting what he saw and and using his instincts to attack the catch point. Leonard had incredible acceleration and closing speed and I noticed that he could get away with being more aggressive than other defensive backs because of that recovery speed. Leonard was really solid throughout camp and I think he did a great job of having consistent competitive reps.rnrnTwitter: u003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/DJLeonard00u0022u003ehttps://twitter.com/DJLeonard00u003c/au003ernrnHudl: u003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/profile/12866576/DJ-Leonardu0022u003ehttps://www.hudl.com/profile/12866576/DJ-Leonardu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63cef16e7f5cf"} /-->
