The 1st thing that stands out from his film is his size. He stands 6'2u0022 inches tall and looks every part of it. At defensive end, he has the quickness to get off the ball. Then he uses his hands well to engage offensive linemen and rip through them to create chaos for the offense. At tight end, he shows legit receiver skills. He runs many different routes and runs them well. Smith showed that he has good hands and can catch anything thrown his way. Smith is a good prospect who showed good ability at defensive end and tight end.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66075e48edf57"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["427345"],"_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":"Nolan Dilucia is one of the better quarterback prospects in the 2026 class.

Jones runs excellent routes. He knows how to set up defensive backs by making subtle moves.  At defensive back, he does a nice job in coverage, and anything thrown in his direction he usually gets his hands on the ball.

He then gets in the backfield and shows good speed by chasing down quarterbacks. Moyer also showed good coverage skills by dropping in coverage and making plays.
