Jequez Ezzard WR Sam Houston State Draft Profile

Strengths

• Combines speed, balance, quickness, vision and crisp cuts to leave defensive backs and linebackers in the dust.
• Has elite balance tight-roping the sideline and in-and-out of his breaks, showing excellent start-stop ability and burst.
• Has elite speed and cutting ability and good hands and toughness. Lacks the ideal size, but has a similar body type to Antonio Brown.
• An impressive athlete with very quick acceleration to reach his top speed quickly and stretch the field. Very good body control and smooth movements. Plays fast and explosive.
• A savvy, natural pass-catcher with reliable hands and very good focus. Snatches the ball out of the air and shows the concentration to make acrobatic catches look easy.
• Very good hands, accepts the ball fluidly on most throws and is ready to make a play afterward. Makes catches in traffic, even going up over taller defenders with vertical and toughness.
• Keeps his feet active and eyes up to dodge traffic quickly and easily. Has excellent straight-line speed to be a breakaway threat at any level. Will initiate contact and runs through high tackle attempts but isn't overall a powerful player.

Weaknesses

• Does not always use his hands to secure deep throws, allowing the ball into his pads and chest.
• Needs to refine his routes and become a better all-around receiver. Has some ball security concerns. Durability concerns because of his size.
• Doesn't have the size to consistently win on the outside, but can be productive working the middle of the field and as a return man.
