Nick Bliss
Reliable wideout who sells routes. Displays good short-area quickness and terrific eye/hand coordination. Tracks the pass in the air, lays out or works to make the difficult reception, and extends to grab the ball away from his frame. Uses his hands to separate from defenders and comes back to the ball out of breaks.
Hard-charging running back with average upside. Displays good vision and solid short-area quickness and runs hard. Keeps his feet moving, bounces around piles, and displays a lot of toughness carrying the ball. Terrific pass catcher out of the backfield who adjusts to the throw and makes the reception with his hands away from his frame.
Natural receiver with a smooth style and reliable hands. Plays with terrific balance and body control and nicely uses the sidelines. Adjusts to the errant throw, makes the catch in stride, and takes a pounding yet holds onto the ball. Possesses soft, quick hands and snatches the ball out of the air. On the same page as his quarterback, finds the soft spot in the defense, and consistently comes free to make himself an available target.
A athletic and explosive defensive lineman who fires off the snap, plays with proper pad level, and immediately gets his hands up. Keeps his feet moving, is tough to move off the point, and consistently gets leverage on opponents. Displays a closing burst of speed.
