DeAngelo Branche of Norfolk State ~ 5.11/200
"A natural runner who showcases good fluidity in the hips, feels run lanes inside and is patient in allowing his blocks to set up. Displays a good initial burst through the hole, keeps his pad level down and does a nice job finishing runs. However, has a narrow build through his lower half, lacks ideal power and too often goes down easily on contact.
Runs hard and likes to finish his carries, but isn't a guy who breaks too many tackles. Allows his pad level to get upright quickly once he gets into the open field, as he seems to stiffen up and doesn't display much of a second gear. Lacks great straight-line speed and doesn't seem nearly as comfortable trying to run away from defenders in space as he does picking his way through tighter areas.
Impression: Displays some natural run instincts and good pad level/initial burst in tight areas. However, lacks the overall strength/physicality to overcome his very average athletic skill set for a guy his size to make a roster."
