About Dylan
Expert Analysis
Alin Edouard | Prep Redzone Scout
Dylan showed advanced movement skills for a 2029 prospect at the Navy Combine, particularly in how fluid he looked during coverage-focused drills. He stayed light on his feet, transitioned smoothly out of his pedal, and showed the ability to open and drive without losing balance. His eyes were disciplined, allowing him to react quickly and stay in phase through reps. Dylan competed with confidence, showed coachability throughout the session, and handled the pace of the combine well for his age, pointing to strong long-term upside.

. Thomas like LaFell is a two way player, but unlike LaFell I think his talent serves him best on the defensive side. Thomas is an absolute baller as a safety, showcasing the true “center field” ability you want from a free safety. Thomas has supreme field vision whether that is dropping back into coverage, or filling the gaps in run defense. And when it comes to tackling, don’t worry, Thomas has natural hard hitting talents, and shows a nice ability to rush the QB on designed blitzes. As a wideout Thomas demonstrates fantastic hands (which also helps him catch INTs as well as TDs) and really great separation ability. Overall he is an incredible all around talent, capable of impacting the game in multiple different ways.
