CJNickson

Talented two-way player with the potential to be a top prospect as a tight end or pass rusher. Has unverified size but looks to be in the 6-foot-4/6-foot-5 range. Lines up as a pass-catcher and linebacker for his high school. A fluid, coordinated athlete. Shows natural ball skills as a pass catcher. Capable of making high-point grabs and timing his jumps to attack the ball at its highest point. Plays off-ball and as a pass rusher on defense. Shows the awareness and dexterity to make plays in coverage, though he likely projects as a pass rusher on that side of the ball. Doubles as a gifted basketball player, earning all-state honors and starring on the AAU circuit. Led Weatherford to a 29-2 season and averaged over 21 points per game on the hardwood as a sophomore. Will need to continue progressing from a strength perspective and ultimately zero in on a long-term position.
