Schwartz was a player that was able to turn heads early with his burst of speed and standing out during drill work. During testing he was able to catch my attention with his quickness and change of direction. In drills he was able to show his shiftiness, breaking down the LB and making them miss in open field work. He had good vision and soft hands being able to make plays in the passing game as well.
Highlights
Blanchard was a receiver that was impressive at WR but made this list because when coaches asked for a couple players to come help give the OL a look, he was the first person to jump over. If he would have worked with DL I personally think he would have walked away with MVP. He was explosive off of the edge and has quick hands, being able to smack the OL hands down and power them out of the way. He had surprisingly a bag of moves that he was able to utilize and got to the QB on every attempt. He even moved to the inside and was still able to dominate. He would be a stock watch player on the edge if he decides to make the move to full time.
Highlights
Wald was a big back that was able to use his speed at times to make a defender miss. I liked that he was very coachable and was able to take what the coaches were telling him and then implement that in the drill work. He was able to break defenders down more consistently when the coach gave him a couple of tips. He was a player that was able to show growth quickly and should be someone to add to the radar moving forward.
Highlights
Coltman was a back that has good lateral quickness and was able to show his elusiveness in open field work. He was able to use his speed to get defenders off balance and beat them upfield. He was able to use head fakes to be elusive in drill work showing his ability to make defenders miss.
Highlights
Bollig was a big boy that showed quick feet being able to slide step and have a quick first pop. He has a strong punch that was able to get defenders off balance. He had good hand placement through drill work and one on ones which made him standout.
Highlights
Haines was a player that was quick with his feet and was able to use his strength as an advantage to beat defenders at times. He was a player that was able to not give up ground having a strong base. He was able to use his power and quick hands to get hands on and win his matchup.
