Nyland Green

Highly projectable length and great stature. Lean, narrow build with room to add muscle mass. Long strider who glides past opponents and plays at different pace. Shows fluidity in coverage, looking particularly comfortable in man situations. Can flip his hips to change directions and sticks to receivers through breaks. Tremendous closing speed and instincts. Displays down-field awareness and can go up for possession in traffic. Some background at safety and wide receiver, where he flashes very good ball skills. Solid tackler, but room for improvement near the line of scrimmage. Could be a major contributor in the return game. Projects as a multi-year starter at the elite Power Five level and upside as a first-day NFL Draft selection.
