<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>To finish up my camp evaluations from the Under Armour Next-Up camp in Baltimore, I'll have a two-part series on the running backs.

The passing 1v1's gave me a better look at his explosivness in person. Stevens left linebackers flat-footed at the top of routes with fakes or sudden cuts that lead him to getting great separation on routes. When he turned upfield after catches, he displayed a noticeable burst and his ability to accelerate quickly.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/EdOBrienCFB/status/2069051045422964849?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"x","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/EdOBrienCFB/status/2069051045422964849?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1496535"],"_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-6a36b7d976f55"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Milburn finished the 2025 season with 1,348 yards and 20 total touchdowns. Just like his on-field highlights suggested, Milburn's combination of short-area quickness and straight-line speed stood out during the 1v1 segment. He has physical toughness as well. There was one rep where he fights off contact and pulls away from the linebacker while breaking into an out route, ultimately making a tip-toe catch near the sidelines. Able to watch him run different routes: whip, corner, out, and wheel. Did a nice job of creatign space of fakes and hesitation moves. Not the biggest back, so being able to show his value as a three-down back should help his recruiting cause. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/EdOBrienCFB/status/2065088803987980381?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"x","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/EdOBrienCFB/status/2065088803987980381?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["945165"],"_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-6a36b7d977037"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Judging from his 2025 season highlights, it looks like Smith is leaning more towards being recruited as a kicker. For this UA Baltimore camp. Smith participated as a running back. On film, he's a straight-line runner. At the camp, he displayed his pass-catching skills. During one rep, he showed his ability to get vertical and adjust to an underthrown football to make a catch. On another route, he got creative, selling a fake angle route inside, only to break back outside to a whip route, which caused 2-3 yards of separation. I think he has a chance to play on either side at the next level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/EdOBrienCFB/status/2064865079867101437?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"x","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/EdOBrienCFB/status/2064865079867101437?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1180686"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":2232710,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-6a36b7d977115"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I've seen Graham on four different occasions this offseason. Three during a 7v7 tournament and this UA Baltimore camp. I've also watched his 2025 season highlights. A lot of things lined up. For his size, Graham has good speed and is a legit threat one he gets vertical. Linebackers had no chance of staying with him downfield and that resulted in a few catches. The bust that he would show going upfield after making the catchin during 1v1's looks like the burst he shows when he turns upfield while running the football. Graham has been working on his route-running with his travel 7v7 team, Swag 7v7, during the offseason and it shows. Graham is a physical player as well, linebackers weren't able to throw him off his routes. Versatile running back hwho can run the complete route tree. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/EdOBrienCFB/status/2063764087075373171?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"x","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/EdOBrienCFB/status/2063764087075373171?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

To finish up my camp evaluations from the Under Armour Next-Up camp in Baltimore, I'll have a two-part series on the running backs. To be honest, the running backs dominated the passing 1v1 session against the linebackers. Here is Part 2 of 2.
