Nyjae picked up his first offer coming from Morgan St. the other day. A more than deserving offer, he has a lot to offer as a versatile DB, able to play CB or S. Nyjae has excellent length which fits the mold of todays DB. He also has fast twitch hips, able to turn & run with WRs without losing a step. Nyjae also shows great instincts in attacking the pass. Able to see it and quickly trigger on the ball. Displays excellent ball skills as well, planting and bursting on it for PBUs & INTs. Always finding himself around the ball. Overall Nyjae is a fluid, quick, explosive athlete that shows up in his ability to be a playmaker in the return game as well. I think as more college get eyes on him this spring and he gets out and camps this summer, Nyjae will be getting many more offers at the FBS/FCS level.

Colbert is a rangy, ball-hawking free safety with strong instincts and real playmaking ability. He consistently shows up around the football, whether it’s in coverage, as a returner, or reacting to quick throws. As a deep safety, he does a good job playing “deep as the deepest”. He stays patient in his pedal, opens his hips cleanly, and breaks on the ball when it’s in the air. Colbert’s timing at the catch point stands out, as he competes well on posts, seams, and post-corner routes. Colbert’s highlights show him breaking up passes and capitalizing on underthrown balls for interceptions.

Colbert has a natural feel for the game. He reads quarterbacks well, jumps routes in zone coverage, and reacts quickly to screens and swing passes. He’s active downhill, willing to tackle, and shows reasonable effort finishing plays, including ankle tackles in space. Colbert also flashes strong ball skills, securing interceptions cleanly and turning them into positive returns.

With the ball in his hands, Colbert is electric. His punt-return ability is evident, with highlights showing multiple extended returns and touchdowns. That athleticism translates to defense, where his range and recovery speed allow him to erase mistakes and still make plays.

I’d like to see him put more pure safety reps early in the film, intense middle coverage, angles to the ball, and communication. He’ll also want to continue improving play-action discipline, trusting his keys before triggering downhill.  I’d like to see him limit the number of punt returns at the start of highlights if the goal is safety recruitment. Use them as a secondary showcase, not the lead.

Overall, Colbert is a high-upside free safety prospect with range, ball skills, and athleticism. With added strength and a tighter safety-focused presentation, he projects as a dangerous center-field defender who can change games with turnovers.
