About Omar
Expert Analysis
Cole Laing | Prep Redzone Scout
Omar just completed his senior season and has yet to commit to a school. His athleticism sticks out on film with his very good acceleration going along with his good balance, change of direction, lateral quickness, hand quickness, and speed. He was a two-way player for St. Anne’s playing a hybrid WR/RB role on offense and Outside Corner on defense.
WR
He has a quick release and good route running, utilizing his good athleticism in his route to create separation. Displays soft hands and quickly looks to make a move upfield. He has quick plant-and-go acceleration and good change of direction that allows him to avoid defenders with good balance to keep his feet. As a RB, he has good vision to follow his blocks with good burst out of cuts to quickly accelerate and run through arm tackles with his good balance. He has good ability to create yards when the blocking breaks down, utilizing his change of direction and speed to find a seam and create positive yards. He is a willing blocker, blocking downfield as a WR and as a lead blocker out of the backfield. He can also pass protect in the backfield and can anchor himself against a linebacker and DB rush to give the QB time to make a throw.
DB
As a DB, he can be utilized in Press, Soft, and Off coverage. He has quick hands to jam a WR with good strength to disrupt a route. In Soft and Off coverage, he has good backpedal and fluid hips to turn and mirror the WR in tight man coverage. He shows good processing by passing off WRs and covering the new WR in his zone. Solid ball skills, with good closing speed on WRs and will look for the ball, with the ability to force pass breakups and willing to be physical to disrupt the catch. He is good in run support, able to shed blocks of larger WRs, and wrap up the ball carrier on the third level with good tackling ability.
