Eric showed some great attacking ability in the Indy drills at the Winona State prospect camp. His ability to work into the tight angles to attack the hip of the ball carrier was a consistent skillset he showed thru the duration of the reps I got to watch at camp. Eric’s tape mostly shows off his reps at WR, but those reps correlate nicely to the linebacker spot, as he shows that consistent level of angle work when it comes to his blocking ability. Eric does a solid job of keeping his pad-level steady in almost all the reps he puts out on film, as he also shows capable pass-catching ability on tape. Just picked his first offer here recently, and there’s no doubt in my mind that his recruiting will pick up going into the 2022 season as there’s a lot to like about this kid’s mentality of doing the detail-oriented items well on the field that sometimes doesn’t show up on tape.
