Damien Berry, RB, Miami (Fla.)
Berry showed quick feet and good agility to change directions easily and quickly. He was able to make sharp jump-cuts, displayed the ability to reach full acceleration quickly and showed the speed to turn the corner and outrun angles. He caught the ball well and demonstrated very good quickness as a receiver.
Jerrell Powe, NT, Mississippi
Powe sustained a strong week with his best day Thursday. He displayed excellent quickness and the agility to defeat offensive linemen easily in one-on-one drills. He also showed the brute strength to drive opponents backward into the pocket. Though there are some concerns about Powe because of his disappointing senior season, he is playing with the competitiveness and effort that was often missing this season.
Isa Abdul-Quddus, S, Fordham
He is a smooth, fluid athlete with good speed, quickness and range in coverage. He is a very instinctive coverage player who always seems to be in good position, takes good angles to the ball and displays a good burst to the finish point. Though he doesn’t have great size, he is a physical player who isn’t afraid to hit.
Tim Barnes, C, Missouri
Barnes consistently won one-on-one battles Thursday and was even able to block Powe. He played with a very strong base and showed good quickness and the ability to recover quickly. He uses his hands very well and consistently displayed excellent competitiveness.
Rob Housler, TE, Florida Atlantic
Housler had his best day of practice Thursday and showed he is the best tight end here. He ran precise routes and demonstrated the awareness, body control and ball skills to make tough catches on off-target throws. He also displayed the speed to get downfield quickly for a big tight end.
