Nick Singleton

Stout build with good height and overall bulk. Plus frame length with space for a bit more mass, but will leave high school with college-ready size. Slasher with home run big-play athleticism. A bit upright in gait but shrinks target and enhances leverage upon contact. Exceptional run violence as a senior. Noticeably improved explosiveness and play demeanor in junior season has carried over into senior campaign. Elite run finisher. Shows impressive contact balance and gains yardage through tacklers. Accelerates quickly with terrific downhill burst. Plants foot and takes off in cutback situations. Excellent top-end speed supported on the track with a 10.89 100 as a junior. Also posted an impressive 46-1 shot put, a rare data point relative to position. Highly productive through junior season and into senior year in volume and per carry rate (12-plus). Owns multiple shuttle times of 4.25 or faster and shows corresponding elusiveness to make defenders miss in space. Played limited defensive snaps as a junior and has continued into senior year. All data suggests great fluidity, but occasionally runs a bit tight-hipped. Very limited pass-catching opportunities coming from a run-oriented scheme. Undeniable two-down ability, but is he a three-down back? Big-play speed is unquestioned but will need to harness run-bouncing tendencies vs. P5 competition. Physical superiority and violent field demeanor could lead to unnecessary wear and tear. Owns a strong case for RB1 in the 2022 cycle. Projects to the high-major level with long-term early-round NFL Draft potential.
