About Aidan
Expert Analysis
Alex Pallone | Prep Redzone Scout
I watched Aidan quite a bit yesterday. Early in warm-ups, Aidan stood out to me because of his size. Legit 6’4″, long limbs, and athletic build. During the initial drills, I thought Aidan did a solid job, consistently showing above-average athleticism.
Going into 1-on-1s, I liked Aidan, but I didn’t love him. Leaving 1-on-1s, Aidan was one of my biggest standouts.
He’s another skill player who consistently won reps by keeping things simple and doing what he does best. Against press, I was consistently impressed with Aidan’s release. He’s able to quickly chop his feet, pick a direction, and immediately win leverage while barely being touched by the opposing DB. At the top of his route, he was simply decisive. Changing direction, Aidan was able to maintain his same speed, and that usually allowed him to earn an extra step on his DB.
I do think there’s room to grow, but this was a very promising performance. Right now, I like him as an X receiver in college. If he’s able to bulk and prove himself as a blocker, he could be an in-line TE.
