Expert Analysis
Brendan Mankarious | Prep Redzone Scout
Vance played a little bit of everything all over the field for Pingry last fall. From the clips I saw he took reps at tight end, receiver, defensive end, linebacker, and even safety.
Defensively he keeps working and fights the reach nicely. He does this by getting hands on his matchup every time out. He pursues from either the backside or plays outside of him. When pass rushing Vance knows to get his hands up, deflecting many passes in the process, should he not get home. Vance should focus on attacking and playing half-man leverage when in the trenches and not creep too far into the backfield.
On offense Vance uses his hands to catch. He has the size, athleticism, and skills to be an in-line or slot tight end. He leverages his body well to shield defenders’ path to the ball. He often gets quick, immediate passes when he is targeted. Vance does a nice job stalk blocking and blocking then running a delayed route as a safety valve for easy yardage too. Vance would benefit from showing a more expansive route tree.
