Ernest shazor
Strengths: Great size...Explosive...Good speed...A punishing tackler...Very physical and loves to hit...A playmaker...Not afraid to come up and support the run...Still has a lot of upside.
Weaknesses: Raw and still developing...Needs to work on his technique...Can be too aggressive at times...Not really a ballhawk...May be a bit of a S / OLB 'tweener and need to work on his body depending on which position he plays.
Notes: Highly touted prep recruit...Hasn't reached his full potential and has all the physical tools you look for...Could develop into a top all-around safety...Some teams may look at him as a potential linebacker prospect as well.
rian wallace
Strengths: Has great size...Strong and tough...Has good speed and the quickness to make plays sideline-to-sideline...Has a fiery demeanor on the field...Very instinctive...Motor never stops...A playmaker and very productive...Versatile and could project to either outside or middle linebacker at the next level.
Weaknesses: Really struggles in coverage...Not a tremendous natural athlete...Has had some off the field problems and was suspended for punching a teammate...Durability might be a concern after suffering a serious knee injury prior to starting college...Needs to work on his technique and show better discipline.
Notes: Nickname is "Goo"...Unheralded player who didn't get the attention he deserves because he played for a bad team his entire career...One of the best prospects Temple has produced in a long time.
boley
Strengths: Very productive...Excellent speed...A playmaker who is always around the action...Good pass rusher...Very aggressive versus the run.
Weaknesses: Undersized and needs to add some bulk...Must hit the weights and get stronger...Struggles when forced to take on blocks...Only average in pass coverage.
Notes: Was overshadowed by Rod Davis for most of his career but really came into his own as a senior...Has some tools and was a great college player, but will be limited in terms of what he can do at the pro level.

i had posted something asking about shazor a while back and i heard good things. he seems to be a poor man\'s thomas davis. same strengths(except for not being a ballhawk) and same weaknesses. would be nice if we could pull of getting him maybe in the third
