Rico Walker Scouting Summary
Cody Bellaire
07/18/22

Large tweener prospect who lines up off the edge and at off-ball backer on defense and sprinkles in some play at wide receiver as well. Stands in at over 6-foot-3, 235 pounds with a 6-foot-7 wingspan. Has the length and movement skills to excel along the defensive line. Comfortable space player who can make plays from the hash to the sideline. Heavier set right now on an athletic frame. Could reshape and sculpt the body to become more agile and increase change of direction. Explosive athlete who jumped a 27.5-inch vertical and a 9-foot-6 broad jump during the spring camp circuit prior to his senior season. Striker at the point of contact. Possesses real stopping power. Productive player who lives in the backfield. Totaled 56 tackles, 7 tackles for loss and 7 sacks during his junior season. Ideal fit would be as an edge rusher at the next level. Should mold body into an NFL-looking prospect and athlete through collegiate strength and conditioning program.
