Expert Analysis
Brendan Mankarious | Prep Redzone Scout
As the team’s fourth-leading rusher last year with 131 carries and 2 scores on 24 carries, I anticipate Jasiah Espinal to get the first opportunity to replace 1488 yards, 22 touchdowns, and 250 carries that are set to graduate in May. Espinal was typically asked to tote the rock through the C gaps when given the ball and profiles as a more straight-ahead runner who has good balance as a ball carrier. He is also a solid down blocker when lined up on the wing, unafraid to stick it to the ribs of down linemen. At the second level of a defense Espinal has the ability to totally win and beat up on his matchup in the process when asked to block and as a kick out man. What allows Espinal to be such a big force in the run blocking game are his pad level and base; additionally, although tough to tell it appears that he steps with the correct foot. In a huge void to fill in terms of production out of the backfield, Espinal would benefit from a tremendous agility, mobility, and conditioning program in the offseason. Doing so will improve his ability to change directions, explode, and ultimately lead to bigger plays.
