He has solid height with a good frame. Good athletic ability displaying very good foot speed, explosiveness, change of direction, good lateral agility, balance, acceleration, flexibility, and foot quickness. Good release off the line of scrimmage, showing good foot quickness and lateral movement into his stem to gain leverage on the DB in his route. Good deep route runner, with good long speed to get on top of the CB and gain separation in the route. Good at short quick routes, securing the catch and quickly turning upfield. Good dependable hands with good body control to adjust to the pass. Very good after the catch showing very good change of direction and good acceleration as a ball carrier to gain yards. As a running back, he displays good vision to read his blocks with the discipline to take the correct path. Good burst through the hole to the second level, showing good balance running through weak tackles. Does not show a full route tree in his film and that is an area for development in his game. The athleticism and discipline he displays suggest he will be able to add to his route tree. Also plays Cornerback on defense, showing good coverage and ball skills for Highland Spring's defense. Overall, we project him as a WR who will be a versatile weapon for an offense due to his long speed, short-area quickness, and ability to line up in the backfield as well.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/20649433/zamar-bledsoe" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Hudl</a> / <a href="https://x.com/zamar_bledsoe" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">X</a></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1631222"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67b36a90304a4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Running Back prospect who currently is 5'09" with a good frame.

Good athletic ability with good foot speed, balance, change of direction, lateral movement, explosiveness, solid acceleration, and hip fluidity. As a Wide Receiver, he has solid release off the line of scrimmage into his routes. Good route running on Seams, Posts, and Corners where he operates best. Very good adjustment and body control to catch the ball, using his size to box out defensive backs and able to catch balls outside of his frame with his very good grip strength and hands, with good foot control on the sidelines to remain in bounds. Room to develop on his initial release and to fill out his route tree with change of direction type routes. He is a Safety prospect on defense. Limited film is available on his season highlights. What sticks out is his good ball skills as a deep safety, reading the route concept with good reaction to the throw to break on the ball with his good speed to be in a position to make a play. Overall, I like him best as a Wide Receiver prospect who has big play potential running deep routes with his very good adjust and hands to haul in the catch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/19453227/khalon-murrell" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Hudl</a> / <a href="https://x.com/Kam_Athletic" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">X</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1313583"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67b36a9030537"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Good height and frame.
