He displayed clean footwork, good hip sink and displayed strong hands and good concentration through traffic. He got open numerous times on his vertical routes and he is a player that will have a fun season this year, he had a great showing during the two day event.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1626505"],"_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-69def93669adb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jayden has put on good size this offseason. He has good length and is a natural as a cover corner. During these 7's I enjoy getting to watch prospects like Jayden play on the opposite side of the ball. He has a good release and does well getting vertical. He played the majority of his snaps on the defensive side and had did a good job in coverage and when in zone, showed good closing speed and his long strides allow him to cover a lot of space. He has great instincts and is a player that is effective as a cover cornerback and has the size, physicality, and range to be a deep safety. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1683712"],"_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-69def93669b5f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Manu had a good two days and he displayed his patented physicality. He knocked receivers off their routes and knocked a few off their feet without much force. His physicality along with his coverage skills and instincts, make him an exciting prospect. He can slide into a slot corner, can be a box safety and has the cover skills and length to play on the outside on an island if needed. He's an exciting prospect and his recruitment should see an uptick. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1935021"],"_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-69def93669bb0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Nixon is a fun player to watch. He has clean footwork and does well winning at all three levels as a receiver. He is at his best when he is running vertical routes, as he can use his speed and acceleration to get an edge over his cornerback, and he uses his footwork and subtle fakes to turn his corner around. He is a receiver who closed out the 2025 season the right way and, he has been making tremendous strides this offseason. Nixon was open throughout the entire event, he was a tough cover. He won with footwork and with speed, he has the deadly combo that you want and he is primed for an uptick in his recruiting. He's a D1 prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Those were some additional players that impressed during the event.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
