H-Back or low end WTE ... 5 year player in the program type most likely ... haven’t watched his film
I dont do the whole deeply analyze thing... but...
He looks slow and doesnt have much burst or change of direction.
He looks strong and has decent balance/feet.
If he was from Hawaii he would be the next decent NG project.
If he was 3 inches taller his lack of speed would bother me less.
If he was quicker he would be a fine OLB/DE in our scheme.
He looks pretty natural playing all over the field against whatever shitty competition he is playing against, so thats good at least. Maybe he will be the next Dissly dawg type TE. meh.
It's tough film to really evaluate because there's very little that is specific to what he's going to be asked to do at UW (largely a blocker and receiving is going to come as part of play action and angle routes) ... film is him basically running as a wildcat QB, split out as a WR, QB throwing, and a little bit at LB.
What I think shows a lot during the film is the fact that he always plays forward ... hit him and he falls forward ... so that's a positive in terms of blocking (worst case likely going to stalemate a lot and when having the ball in his hands is going to fall forward ... obviously competition has to be taken with a grain of salt.
I'd have to go back and watch the other Cade's video, but I see some similarities ... neither wow you but both show some good tools to work with. One thing about Jumper the pass catcher is that he feels like he's got decent hands and displays the ability to high point the ball.
The downside to Jumper is that he's almost assuredly a bit of a developmental prospect in the sense that what he's being asked to do is different than what he currently does ... so development and learning will need to be tempered. Playing as a RS Soph and then probably a lot in his Jr/Sr year makes sense.
The FB is a missing piece of modern football and there's some value here ... particularly with an accurate QB like Huard coming in terms of play action and getting some easy 6-10 yard plays. I like having the flexibility to use it in the office and the reality is that H-back is a slightly different skillset vs TE.
For as much as we talk about elite players at every position, there's also the side of the argument that there's a foundational element to this program about taking these 5 year players that will develop and contribute as upperclassmen. They won't necessarily be the sexiest player but there is value in them.
It's far from a terrible pickup. It's definitely early to take a player like Jumper who has likely a muddied recruiting profile given what he shows on film versus how he'll be used in college. It's also important to note that players that play a lot of HS QB that switch to other positions in college often are relatively under-recruited and then tend to outperform in college. I can definitely say that TCU has had their fair of HS QBs that end up playing a wide array of positions (including DE) that have turned out to be pretty good. So a lot of the thing with a player like Jumper is having a vision for what you want a player/position to look like and then being able to extrapolate the recruit's skillset into that position's requirements.
As I said above, I feel like this is a pickup that we're doing to help move momentum and in particular the local angle.

Playing as a RS Soph and then probably a lot in his Jr/Sr year makes sense.
The FB is a missing piece of modern football and there's some value here ... particularly with an accurate QB like Huard coming in terms of play action and getting some easy 6-10 yard plays. I like having the flexibility to use it in the office and the reality is that H-back is a slightly different skillset vs TE.
For as much as we talk about elite players at every position, there's also the side of the argument that there's a foundational element to this program about taking these 5 year players that will develop and contribute as upperclassmen. They won't necessarily be the sexiest player but there is value in them.
It's far from a terrible pickup. It's definitely early to take a player like Jumper who has likely a muddied recruiting profile given what he shows on film versus how he'll be used in college. It's also important to note that players that play a lot of HS QB that switch to other positions in college often are relatively under-recruited and then tend to outperform in college. I can definitely say that TCU has had their fair of HS QBs that end up playing a wide array of positions (including DE) that have turned out to be pretty good. So a lot of the thing with a player like Jumper is having a vision for what you want a player/position to look like and then being able to extrapolate the recruit's skillset into that position's requirements.
As I said above, I feel like this is a pickup that we're doing to help move momentum and in particular the local angle.
Watched his Jr highlight film ...
It's tough film to really evaluate because there's very little that is specific to what he's going to be asked to do at UW (largely a blocker and receiving is going to come as part of play action and angle routes) ... film is him basically running as a wildcat QB, split out as a WR, QB throwing, and a little bit at LB.
What I think shows a lot during the film is the fact that he always plays forward ... hit him and he falls forward ... so that's a positive in terms of blocking (worst case likely going to stalemate a lot and when having the ball in his hands is going to fall forward ... obviously competition has to be taken with a grain of salt.

So a lot of the thing with a player like Jumper is having a vision for what you want a player/position to look like and then being able to extrapolate the recruit's skillset into that position's requirements.
As I said above, I feel like this is a pickup that we're doing to help move momentum and in particular the local angle.
It's tough film to really evaluate because there's very little that is specific to what he's going to be asked to do at UW (largely a blocker and receiving is going to come as part of play action and angle routes) ... film is him basically running as a wildcat QB, split out as a WR, QB throwing, and a little bit at LB.
What I think shows a lot during the film is the fact that he always plays forward ... hit him and he falls forward ... so that's a positive in terms of blocking (worst case likely going to stalemate a lot and when having the ball in his hands is going to fall forward ... obviously competition has to be taken with a grain of salt.
I'd have to go back and watch the other Cade's video, but I see some similarities ... neither wow you but both show some good tools to work with. One thing about Jumper the pass catcher is that he feels like he's got decent hands and displays the ability to high point the ball.
The downside to Jumper is that he's almost assuredly a bit of a developmental prospect in the sense that what he's being asked to do is different than what he currently does ... so development and learning will need to be tempered. Playing as a RS Soph and then probably a lot in his Jr/Sr year makes sense.
The FB is a missing piece of modern football and there's some value here ... particularly with an accurate QB like Huard coming in terms of play action and getting some easy 6-10 yard plays. I like having the flexibility to use it in the office and the reality is that H-back is a slightly different skillset vs TE.
For as much as we talk about elite players at every position, there's also the side of the argument that there's a foundational element to this program about taking these 5 year players that will develop and contribute as upperclassmen. They won't necessarily be the sexiest player but there is value in them.
It's far from a terrible pickup. It's definitely early to take a player like Jumper who has likely a muddied recruiting profile given what he shows on film versus how he'll be used in college.

This is a movie that is hard to really appreciate because the things done on UW are rarely unique (most obstacles and welcomes appear as part of game events and stage travelers) ... This movie basically continued him. Wildcats like QB, split like WR, throw QB, and a little LB.
I think this movie shows a lot in the film, that is, he always plays the foremost role ... he hits and pushes him ... so he is very active in blocking (the worst case may be too much) . Descent, when he walks with his hands in his pockets ... Of course, he must compete with salt seeds.
I don't have to watch Cade's video again, but I will see more ... You won't do it either, but there are some good tools for both. The thing about the passer-by Jumper is that he feels that the owner has a strong feel and can lift the top voice.
The jumper's breakthrough is that, in the sense of asking him and accepting it now, he is almost certainly a breakthrough in development. Therefore, development and learning need to be tested. The RS Soph and later players may also be suitable in his Jr / Sr years.
FB is a failure of modern football and has some value here ... especially for a real QB like Huard, when he shoots and easily plays a 6-10 yard game. I find that it likes flexibility very much when it is used in the office. The fact is that TE thinks the art of the H-shaped backplane is a little different.
At the forum, in addition to the elite players we talked about in various positions, others argued that there is a basic element in the plan, namely the arrest of these five-year-old players who will develop into capitalists and participate in them. She may not have to be the sexiest actress, but she is very valuable.
It is far away from the steep hills. Of course, for a player like Jumper, it may be premature to have useful personal data, considering what he shows in the movie, not how it is used in college. It should also be noted that players who spend a lot of HS QB to transfer to other areas of the university are usually less likely to be invited and then perform better than universities. I can certainly say that TCU provided an evaluation for the QS owner. He has held various positions (including DE) and looks very good. Therefore, the purpose of having a player like Jumper is to understand what you want the player / position to look like, and then add acquisition skills to the position requirements.
As I said above, I think this is the ambush we are trying to help speed up in the north, especially the local area.
Comments
H-Back or low end WTE ... 5 year player in the program type most likely ... haven’t watched his film
He looks slow and doesnt have much burst or change of direction.
He looks strong and has decent balance/feet.
If he was from Hawaii he would be the next decent NG project.
If he was 3 inches taller his lack of speed would bother me less.
If he was quicker he would be a fine OLB/DE in our scheme.
He looks pretty natural playing all over the field against whatever shitty competition he is playing against, so thats good at least. Maybe he will be the next Dissly dawg type TE. meh.

I'd have to go back and watch the other Cade's video, but I see some similarities ... neither wow you but both show some good tools to work with. One thing about Jumper the pass catcher is that he feels like he's got decent hands and displays the ability to high point the ball.
The downside to Jumper is that he's almost assuredly a bit of a developmental prospect in the sense that what he's being asked to do is different than what he currently does ... so development and learning will need to be tempered. Playing as a RS Soph and then probably a lot in his Jr/Sr year makes sense.
The FB is a missing piece of modern football and there's some value here ... particularly with an accurate QB like Huard coming in terms of play action and getting some easy 6-10 yard plays. I like having the flexibility to use it in the office and the reality is that H-back is a slightly different skillset vs TE.
For as much as we talk about elite players at every position, there's also the side of the argument that there's a foundational element to this program about taking these 5 year players that will develop and contribute as upperclassmen. They won't necessarily be the sexiest player but there is value in them.
It's far from a terrible pickup. It's definitely early to take a player like Jumper who has likely a muddied recruiting profile given what he shows on film versus how he'll be used in college. It's also important to note that players that play a lot of HS QB that switch to other positions in college often are relatively under-recruited and then tend to outperform in college. I can definitely say that TCU has had their fair of HS QBs that end up playing a wide array of positions (including DE) that have turned out to be pretty good. So a lot of the thing with a player like Jumper is having a vision for what you want a player/position to look like and then being able to extrapolate the recruit's skillset into that position's requirements.
As I said above, I feel like this is a pickup that we're doing to help move momentum and in particular the local angle.

This is a movie that is hard to really appreciate because the things done on UW are rarely unique (most obstacles and welcomes appear as part of game events and stage travelers) ... This movie basically continued him. Wildcats like QB, split like WR, throw QB, and a little LB.
I think this movie shows a lot in the film, that is, he always plays the foremost role ... he hits and pushes him ... so he is very active in blocking (the worst case may be too much) . Descent, when he walks with his hands in his pockets ... Of course, he must compete with salt seeds.
I don't have to watch Cade's video again, but I will see more ... You won't do it either, but there are some good tools for both. The thing about the passer-by Jumper is that he feels that the owner has a strong feel and can lift the top voice.
The jumper's breakthrough is that, in the sense of asking him and accepting it now, he is almost certainly a breakthrough in development. Therefore, development and learning need to be tested. The RS Soph and later players may also be suitable in his Jr / Sr years.
FB is a failure of modern football and has some value here ... especially for a real QB like Huard, when he shoots and easily plays a 6-10 yard game. I find that it likes flexibility very much when it is used in the office. The fact is that TE thinks the art of the H-shaped backplane is a little different.
At the forum, in addition to the elite players we talked about in various positions, others argued that there is a basic element in the plan, namely the arrest of these five-year-old players who will develop into capitalists and participate in them. She may not have to be the sexiest actress, but she is very valuable.
It is far away from the steep hills. Of course, for a player like Jumper, it may be premature to have useful personal data, considering what he shows in the movie, not how it is used in college. It should also be noted that players who spend a lot of HS QB to transfer to other areas of the university are usually less likely to be invited and then perform better than universities. I can certainly say that TCU provided an evaluation for the QS owner. He has held various positions (including DE) and looks very good. Therefore, the purpose of having a player like Jumper is to understand what you want the player / position to look like, and then add acquisition skills to the position requirements.
As I said above, I think this is the ambush we are trying to help speed up in the north, especially the local area.
