Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Shows good sense as a route runner and provides an enormous catch radius over the middle of the field. He has soft hands and uses his frame effectively to shield defenders, making him a major threat in the red zone.
  • Made Bruce Feldman's Freak's List - ranked #15. He wrote "In track, he finished fourth in the country in the heptathlon and ran the fastest 60 in NCAA heptathlon history (6.71). Iosivas bench pressed 370 pounds this month and has vertical-jumped 39 inches. His 60-yard dash time would, by his own estimation, translate into a 4.2-something 40, but he points out that it was also out of the blocks and on a track, so maybe not. His position coach, Brian Flinn, predicts when Iosivas goes through the draft process and performs those tests he will “destroy them all."
  • Iosivas shows suddenness off the line of scrimmage and accelerates quickly, and his top-end speed is among the best in this draft.
  • Plays the more traditional and in-demand position of outside position - lined up at the Z position 85% in 2022
  • He has reliable hands and shows the willingness to make catches in traffic over the middle.
  • A fluid mover capable of creating some separation over the middle of the field, Iosivas has the long arms and soft hands to provide a sizable catch radius.
  • Iosivas plays with a smoothness and balance, and he shows a knack for setting up defensive backs.
  • Strong runner with the ball with enough agility to make defenders miss in the open field.
  • Has a tall frame and long arms, plus strong hands, giving him a huge catch radius.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Iosivas has only ever played against sub-par competition in the Ivy League and while it's fair to say you can only beat the players in front of you - he never totally dominated
  • Has not displayed the kind of separation you would expect for an athlete with that kind of timed speed
  • Struggles against press coverage - lets defenders get into his pads - killing his routes
  • Ran a very limited route tree at Princeton
  • Does not always use his hands to secure deep throws, allowing the ball into his pads and chest.
  • More fast than quick and not particularly twitchy
Scouting Report: Summary
Andrei Iosivas is an interesting prospect who has a chance to be the fastest player at the NFL combine - which will only boost his stock. In addition to having sprinter's speed, he's also got the prototypical size for an outside receiver standing 6-3 and weighing in at 200lbs, and also possesses consistent soft hands. He however has never played against decent competition playing for Princeton and so his stats, while far from meaningless can't be given the same weight as a prospect from a big school.

Despite his small school origins NFL teams will find it hard to overlook his elite measurables and so we could easily see him picked before the end of the third round of the 2023 NFL draft.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
