Prep: (FR-SO)  No stats found or reported  (JR) Played majority of season with a separated shoulder yet still contributed to his team in a big way.  Caught 50 passes for 800 yards and 8 touchdowns. 

Analysis:  Can play a number of different positions.  On offense he can be a wide receiver.  He runs great routes and shows good hands.  With the ball in his hands he is a strong open field runner.  Does not have the speed to be a deep threat but his size allows him to punish corners or safeties when they attempt to tackle him.  He is a great blocker out wide which helped spring many big plays for his team.  Defensively he understands coverage well.  He breaks on the ball well and plays great zone defense.  He is a good tackler in the open field.  Defensively he'll project as a strong safety or could grow into an outside linebacker.  Needs to get stronger and work on his speed.
