Nicholas Singleton can be tentative at the line at times. He’ll operate in a gap scheme more efficiently with clear running lanes with the play design (53% gap runs over his final two collegiate seasons). His vision isn’t horrible down-to-down, but it’s an area that could use some cleaning up. Singleton is a linear player who isn’t a violent or explosive mover when changing directions. His steps can get choppy at times as he loses speed in the process. Singleton isn’t a player who will juke you out of your socks. He’s a runner that isn’t going to create a ton of yards on his own. Singleton is a high-cut runner with the necessary upper-body strength to break loose wraps and tacklers that attack him high. The other side of the coin is also true, though. Singleton can be chopped down by tacklers aiming at his waist and below. Singleton has solid pass-pro skills. He works with a strong base. Singleton has plenty of reps where he stands up incoming rushers or redirects them out of the quarterback’s wheelhouse. With 173 collegiate pass blocking snaps, he allowed only three sacks and ten hurries. Singleton is an adequate check-down option in the passing game. He finished top 24 in yards per route run among backs in two of his final three collegiate seasons. He lacks the change of direction ability and explosive short area agility to become a true pass game weapon with a varied route tree, but he should easily be a trusted option with swings and flat routes. Singleton cleaned up drops in his final season with only one after posting a 7.1% or higher drop rate in each of the previous three seasons.

J’Mari Taylor is a dense, bowling-ball back. His low center of gravity allows him to bob and weave through defenders. Taylor has average burst and build-up speed back with a decent second gear in the second-level. Taylor has solid lateral agility, but he loses speed when attempting to string tackle-breaking moves together. He wins with vision and short-area footwork. He’s not a powerback. Taylor is a trusted back in pass pro with only one sack and five hurries allowed in college (160 pass blocking snaps). With his stature and strong base, he can stand up an incoming defender or, at the very least, redirect them from his quarterback. Taylor was a decent checkdown option in the passing game. He amassed 43 receptions (54 targets) in his only season with Virginia, but he only churned out 0.91 yards per route run with a 0.2 aDOT. He did have a 10.4% drop rate, which is concerning. If he can earn passing down reps with his blocking chops, he could be an outlet option for a quarterback, but he’ll likely never be a “pass game weapon”.
